Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

Here are a few tips on improvement for the scratch team:
-I have noticed that the rotate button turns your image 1/12 , I think it should be 1/8.
-I own a program that boasts a tool that can not be found in scratch. This tool lets you turn all pixels in your picture that are the same color as the right color box to the color in thebox on the left.
-Curved lines would be cool too.
-And lastly the paint brush is always a circle- squares and sraight lines would be cool (check microsoft paint for examples).  tongue

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

There are many different gradients in scratch, but one set is closed to the public, transparent gradients. The gradient between trasparent and another color would be beneficial.  big_smile

You can rotate an image by any degree you want. Go here to find out how to do it: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=759

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

I'd like to see the RGB value of a selected color in the editor.

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

Better fill effects would be nice---particularly more control over the gradient effects.
I like the way Photoshop elements does it, with a click-and-drag line segment to define where the two colors go.

It would also be nice to have the paintcan (or a magic wand selection) that had some tolerance for not-exactly-the-same colors, so that photos could be edited more easily.
That said, I've pretty much given up using the scratch editor for fixing my sprites.  Instead, I do all costume editing in Photoshop Elements and just import the result.

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

if you've ever used Flash, you know that there's no variable "boxes". Insted, you make a new text box, but instead of writing something in there, you select "variable text" from a pull-down menu, and when you run the program that textbox displays the variable. I don't think this is possible in bitmap image creations, but I'd like to see an option to implant a variable within a sprite.

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

I'd like to be able to have more than one text element to play with, preferably each with it's own text properties.

Re: new ideas for scratch paint editor

For rotating sprites:
if you press "shift" and then click the rotate button, a small window will appear, and you can type how much degrees you want to turn.
