Can you make it so that you can duplicate costumes?

I'm making HP in my game, but I can't duplicate costumes. It would be really useful if you added this!

I think that's already possible? Just right-click on the costume (in the costume list) and click on duplicate.

You can also use the “stamp” tool in the Scratch menu bar (where “file”, “edit”, and “tips” are). Just click that (your cursor should change to a stamp shape) and then click on the costume you want to duplicate.

And you can copy a costume from one sprite to another by dragging the costume icon (from the costume list) to the sprite icon (in the “Sprites” list, below the stage). (You can actually do that with scripts, too! Just drag a script from the blocks area onto the sprite icon, and it'll show up in the block area of the sprite you dropped it on.)

there is a copy,then it shows up when paste is pressed when using the stamp in the paint editor,I don't really know,but i'll tell you.


  • First you press Control + C on the sprite (Command + C on Mac)
  • Then go to another sprite OR costume still in the editor
  • Then,click on the stamp in the paint editor and press Ctrl + P (Cmd + P on Mac)

Wala,there it is,I know it may not be helpful but it isn't a shift secret it's a Ctrl Secret (i guess there's only 1).

It's already existent and has been for very long.
You simply need to right-click a costume and select “duplicate”.

Already exists. Right-click a costume and click “duplicate” or drag the stamp icon in the header to the costume.

If you have a mouse, “right-click” it, and then you will see some options. Choose the option that says “Duplicate”. Then it copies your costume. It isn't that hard. How many people need to say this.

Try holding down the “Shift” key while using the normal left-click, instead of using right-click. That might make it work (the menu should show up).

This sounds like a bug rather than a suggestion - and it's a year old.
