Add a “stretch” effect

Would the stretch effect only stretch on the X-axis?

It could stretch the Y with the X axis, but the X only stretching feels like a more practical, easy-to-implement deal.

Lamp oil, rope, bombs. You want it? It’s yours my friend. As long as you have enough rupies.

2 ways this could be looking:

set [Stretch v] effect to height: (0) width: (0)
change [Stretch v] effect by height: (0) width: (0)

change stretch by height: (0) width: (0)
set stretch to height: (0) % width: (0) %

I was thinking it would look like this:

set [stretch v] effect to (0)
change [stretch v] effect by (25)

as pretty much every other form of it has been suggested.

Fun_Cupcake_i81: What, were you expecting not to see the utc - 12 thing again? THE UTC - 12 THIGN ALWAYS RETURNS. ALWAYS.
medians: I knew it would happen. I was the one who started it last year.
Fun_Cupcake_i81: Well then if you didn't want it back maybe you need to time travel to last year and fix that

Oh wait if you could time travel I think we all know exactly when you would go-

user2: But this is medians we're talking about, so “from 2.0” can mean the same thing as “from five seconds ago”.

If the stretch value was set to negative, what would happen?

My guess is that it would stretch backwards, similar to the “whirl” and “fisheye” effects.

5 forum tips:

If you are reporting a new forumer's topic to be closed, or moved to another forum, don't mention it, because then, the topic creator will think they will receive either an alert or a ban.
New forumers won't immediately know the rules or terminology of the forums. I have seen this happen hundreds of times (exaggeratedly), especially when experienced forumers (I won't name any) tell new forumers that they are "necroposting", which is when someone posts on an old and resolved topic (especially in the Questions about Scratch forum), causing said topic to be moved to the front page of that forum.

Using Scratchblocks as a writing style is not blockspam, unless it is irrelevant to the discussion. For example, this

ExampleScratcher1 wrote:
How do I make a smooth gliding animation?
when green flag clicked
repeat until <(my question) = [answered]>
ask [How do I make a smooth gliding animation?] and wait
end
say [Thank you!]

is not blockspam, but this

ExampleScratcher2 wrote:

when green flag clicked
move (58) steps
play sound [Stock Laughter Sound Effect HD - 1 Hour v]
forever
play sound [Stock Screaming Sound Effect HD - 1 Hour v]
switch backdrop to [internet v]
say [i broke the internet] for (2) secs
turn cw (15) degrees
go to [nearby restaurant v]
next costume
end

is blockspam, which should be reported.

Even if you name your topic something like “ignore” or “DON'T POST ON HERE IF YOU AREN'T A MEMBER OF OUR GROUP!”, people will still post on your topic because topics are meant to be viewed by everyone.
Just be respectful at all times.

Same, but I was thinking that it has to indicate which axis to stretch on:

set [stretch X v] effect to (0)
set [stretch Y v] effect to (0)

It looks like this is a duplicate topic of this one over here so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place.
