Maximize Paint Editor Canvas

Is there a way to increase the Paint Editor Canvas size so it fills the entire screen?

No, unfortunately not... You're restricted to a 480*360 screen when using Scratch.

This looks like it would fit better in the All About Scratch section of the forums... I'll move it over there, just for you.

Well...Great idea! I need that too. You can make the editor not have to scroll anymore, but that's about it.

I think croyscratch means expanding the paint editor.  smile

Resizing the paint editor would be pretty cool!  big_smile

But even so the paint screen is 480*360.


Check out my projects if you have a chance.

Oh, that would be pretty handy! So when you're all zoomed in, there's a lot more scope.

Thanks for pointing that out  smile  But you can't do that  tongue

Then we'll get it implemented in Scratch 2.0!  big_smile

But I'm too lazy to suggest it right now...  wink

Re: Maximize Paint Editor Canvas

Maybe it could be like the sprite area - there could be a normal mode, 480x360, a smaller mode, 240x180, and a "presentation" mode, 960x720, or something like that.
