modding scratch key not found Dictionary (Object)>>error;
I am trying to make a mod of scratch and I have added two new categories. Yet when I tell it to save image in user mode it comes up with:
key not found
Dictionary(Object)>>error;
Dictionary>>erroKeyNotFound
[ ] in ScratchFrameMorph class>>skinAt:
Dictionay>>at:ifAbsent:
ScratchFrameMorph class>>skinAt:ifAbsent
ScratchFrameMorph class>>skinAt:
[ ] in ScratchViewerMorph>>rebuildCategorySelectors
Array(SequenceableCollection)>>collect:
ScratchViewerMorph>>rebuildCategorySelectors
ScratchFrameMorph>>setLanguage:
Can someone please help, this is my first time modding scratch and I don't know much squeak.

It looks like your ScratchSkin might be broken. Try copying a new ScratchSkin folder in your mod's folder, add your category button images to the ScratchSkin folder, and load the skin in your mod.

Better yet than what nathan wrote above:
- download a fresh version of the Scratch Skin from the Scratch website
- navigate to the folder of your current skin, and copy all of the files in that folder
- navigate to the new skin that you just downloaded, and paste the files into it
- move the old skin's folder out of the way (maybe rename it to SkinBackup)
- move the new folder with the pasted images into where the old folder was
- reload the skin
- if it doesn't work, you still have the backup.

Thanks, I'd just about got it working again, added new blocks, categories and then once again error. Seems to have a problem with the categories 'physics' and/or 'presentation' because I managed to get a control1 and control2. Oh well, time to start again, again. And thanks LS97 for all the help.

I have never thought of that before.
