How to change costume number more quickily?
How to change costume number more quickily in the “Costumes” section? I can only change the number by a few positions at a time by dragging the costume around with the mouse, but using the mousewheel to drag it further away won't work…
Is there any workaround for this?
Thank you in advance for your time ^_^

you can backpack this code if you want

lower number is slower and higher number is faster

That code is cool, but I'm afraid it's not what I was looking for.
What you're doing there is switching costumes in runtime, but what I'm looking for is in the Costumes editor, specifically how to change costume numbers without having to drag them one by one. Because if I had to, say, move costume number 781 all the way to number 324, I would have to drag and drop hundreds of times, mechanically repeating that same process for several minutes every single time I wanted to move a single costume.

Ehem.

One idea I've considered is manually editing the .sb3 file but 1) I don't know if that would work and 2) perhaps it might end up being just as messy.

I have no idea what fencing is.
I tried to embed images directly here but it didn't let me for some reason.
I tried to upload the image elsewhere but it also doesn't let me to link it from there
Alright how about this: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1308749754

Well, where may I find that browser extension? What is it called, or what's its URL?
I just tried one of the extensions that I found, but that one didn't work
