I have that exact same bug!

I noticed it too. Did anyone already report it?

Well I haven't

I have noticed that on both desktop and tablet. And it can be difficult to get rid of the context menu.

I think the 4.0 beta comes out somewhere in 2022. I was looking on the scratch wiki to see what the release date of scratch 2.0 was. The release date was 2013 and the 3.0 beta came out in 2016. That's 3 years. Scratch 3.0 was officially released begin 2019, and currently it's one year old. So 2 years to wait, and we can see the 4.0 beta! (This is my guess)

I wonder if 4.0 will use WebAssembly to speed up projects. It could also allow for other functionality such as a Scratch extension for 3D projects.

All speculation of course. 2.0 had very much a slow beta release. IIRC the Java player was replaced with the Flash player several years before 2.0 was being built.

If I were to guess as to the development of the future of Scratch, I think it is too early to tell whether much to tell whether they are not they are changing things significantly. I think we will be seeing more small changes to 3.0 and not major changes to the underlying code. But WebAssembly could be a possibility as they do need to improve performance.

I don't think a 3D extension will come. That is too hard for new scratchers to understand (got that from the list of rejected suggestions). But i do hope WebAssembly will come. (Scratch 3.0 uses WebGL)

Can't you split it into 4 pieces, and upload them as individual sprites and have this code on them:

when I receive [ v]
next costume

and Broadcast it from another sprite.

Why does Scratch Desktop Setup 3.9.0 only support 64-bit Windows?

My computer is a 32-bit Windows system, so I can't use it.

Can I only use Scratch Desktop Setup 3.6.0?

But Scratch Desktop Setup 3.6.0 doesn't have the shape center feature, which makes it impossible for me to use it.

Then I can only write programs on the Scratch website, but it requires a network connection.

Please help us to add a 32-bit Windows version of Scratch Desktop Setup 3.9.0

If you are interested in translating a single project to javascript you can use https://leopardjs.now.sh/
