"Previous Costume' Block

cinnamon_bun_puff

I think that it would be easier to, in a version of Scratch, to have a block like this, under Looks, and right below ‘next costume’:

previous costume

It's kind of bothering me that I have to always do this:

switch costume to ((costume #) - (1))

I think this might've been suggested already, but I hope for this to happen!

This is a duplicate, but I couldn't find a topic that was open or even viewable.
Personally, I think the workaround is easy and works just fine for me. (if it really bothers you, you can take the costume you want to go back to and make a copy of it so that you can just use the next costume block)

You can use a custom block:

define previous costume
switch costume to ((costume #) - (1))

To Other Users: Stop saying it is rejected. Scratch Team said that they did not rejected the block. The block has no advantages, and it is just that there is already a way to simulate the block.

True, I might try that. Though what if Scratchers don't know how to do that, like New Scratchers, and they don't know how to access the dsciss page?

No support, I find it easy to use the workaround. If it really does bother you, just make it into a custom block.

The workaround is easy and simple enough that anyone can do it. The Custom Block feature is there for this purpose.

Are YOU or someone you know an underrated animator/artist that wants some RECOGNITION?

Already implemented:

switch costume to [previous costume v]

It's not in the dropdown though, so you'll have to create a costume called “previous costume,” select it, and then delete it, or save it in your backpack or use a reporter that reports “previous costume.”
