Stop pushing backpacked costumes to the centre.

When you put a costume (or backdrop) into a backpack, it puts the item in the centre of the editor. For example, if I had a costume like this:

And then I put it into my backpack, like so:

now, I bring the costume back into the editor:

<oops no image sorry>

as you can see, the cat is back to the centre of the editor, strange.

This should be changed. People may put their costumes in specific positions for reasons and then have them brought to the centre. It can be annoying and time-wasting to put them back in the exact place they were.
My suggestion is to keep their position when they are put into the backpack instead of moving them into the centre.

Fun fact: If you put a costume (or a backdrop) into a sprite, then backpack the sprite, it will keep the costume (or backdrop) the same.

Can confirm that this works.

You didn’t really get into detail about how this will work if it ever changes. No support.

The OP was pretty clear and even included pictures. What could they be more clear about?

How this will benefit Scratch 3.0 project pages. I should remove that part of what I just put there in my post.

It would stop people having to do the frustrating task of moving everything back to the right place

Thanks for the workaround. I am not, however, having this topic closed because I still think the problem should be changed.

True. So maybe this will help, thank you for your explanation!
