I would like it if you made it so Pen can draw over sprites

Suggestion:
Giving pen the ability to layer over sprites.

Uses:
It can make more compact projects with pen and sprites simultaneously, because we wouldn't need to take the time to cut off certain parts of sprites, and pen can be easier to make good looking health, stamina, experience, and other kinds of bars.

There is a pen layering suggestion. https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/338446/ (You've posted on it, I think you forgot)
It's for a more sprite-like layering system, so I don't know if it would be considered a duplicate of this suggestion.

huh, well look at that
I'll see if there is much of a difference.

Edit: Yeah they seem close enough, time to close

Wait, now that I read into it more it seems that in the suggestion it is “Pen 5, Pen 4, Pen 3, Pen 2, Pen 1, Sprites” so this actually still stands.

Full support! This would be great for working with pen.

Thanks, do you have anything else you could add? If not that's okay, just can help iron out the issues with it.

Can't you just draw a sprite, hide it, then stamp it, then the pen will be able to draw over it? But I guess pen should be able to go in front of sprites in other ways…

Yes, but that will be complicated for beginners, and if pen is drawing over a moving sprite, then it will not work

I'm actually more inclined to having the pen be layered with the sprite:

go to front
pen down
move () steps

But i still support the general idea as it can be extremely useful

Support, I was TRYING to use pen on the first link in my signature but the land filled up the entire screen so I thought it didn't work.
