I animate the Vector sprites from time to time and I think it would be really helpful to have a filter that can show you Raster or vector costumes in the selection menu, examples:
Scratch cat is a vector file
“Bowl of Cheetos” is a raster file
By filtering “Raster” files, you’d have strictly characters who are pixelated, aka rasters
By filtering “vector” you’d only have the vector options like the bus, the scratch cat extr.
I just think it would help a bit to have an option to filter the selection, maybe it’s too complicated for scratch, but as someone who works with them a lot I think it would be nice. Thoughts?

This used to be a thing for costumes and sprites, there was a type category, and you could filter by “All”, “Bitmap”, and “Vector”:

Huh, I guess they forgot to add it in

He/she means that it existed in Scratch 2.0 but now that we're in Scratch 3.0, it was removed.

Anyway, semi-support. I can see a lot of people using it but probably wouldn't myself.

It still makes sense to say they forgot to add it in because maybe they made the new sprite library ui from the ground up and simply removed it. GoldenJayBug says that they probably simply forgot to add it in the transition from 2.0 to 3.0. It could also be intentional.

semi-support because it's really useful, but it's also really easy to tell the difference between vector and bitmap. I guess it could be used to find stuff faster without seeing the other type though.

I think there are some vector-looking costumes that are actually bitmaps, there might not be a lot though.
