Animation "Bones"

I know, it sounds confusing, but let me tell.

Everyone knows what is animation bones, why don't make it on scratch? it will make animation a lot easier to make, a lot easier than move element parts. Like StickNodes (This is free and kid friendly app) for example.

In case if you ask how it will work… I don't know, maybe strech elements. but I think it should be your choise to add it or not, so let it be tool on toolbar.

(I hope post won't get deleted because of link)

Bone animation is a technique used to create movement in an animated character

Alright, but it may be complicated for people to understand. I don't know if it is a good idea

Scratch is a programming tool, not an animation tool. If you want this, you could try scripting it yourself in Scratch.

Also, see this other post I made about ‘platformer blocks’ - I think something similar applies here.

This does not respond to what I said.

Again, Scratch is for programming not animation. I don't see why a feature that wouldn't be used by the majority of people should be added when it's only very loosely related to Scratch's purpose.

And to put that post I linked into context, here's a better example - “we should add a 3d editor to Scratch because some people use static images of 3d models as costumes (not programmable 3d, just something like the paint editor)”

I don't mean to make scratch into animating sofware or something, I mean to make it easier to animate.
