Clickable Link

Is there a way to make a link posted in a "say" or "think" bubble in the script clickable? So that it redirects you to another site or opens a new window?

Not currently but it would be possible to implement such a thing.

Re: Clickable Link

The reason it is not going to be implemented is that people could give links to nasty websites that have viruses and things that are inappropriate for Scratch.

However, if you want to give a link, you could try shrinking it with bit.ly if it's a bit long to type. Bit.ly will shrink it down so that it's easy to type. Even though it would be POSSIBLE for the Scratch Team to let us link to places, they won't add it into Scratch because it would be misused.


This is a temporary signature. It will exist until I think of something witty.
