Variable Problem!
Lately I have had a problem with my variables. When I save a project that has a variable on large readout, and open that same project sometime later, it is on normal readout. It is a pain when I'm working on a project where it matters how that variable looks! Hope you can help! Thanks.

Re: Variable Problem!
just change it back, and right before you share it, make sure that they look the way you want.

I will try, but it is still very inconveniat that I will have to change it every time I open a scratch project...

They also go back to the top-left corner, which is equally irritating.
I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Yes I've noticed this too...

BTW, this will only happen if the variable is hidden before saving.
So, if you want this not to be a problem for you, make sure all of your variables are showing before you save.
Thanks for the advice, but it still is irritating when having to make sure multiple variables are showing before saving...

Re: Variable Problem!
Try making a script that shows all variables when something is pressed and hides all variables when something is pressed 
Eg: 1 script.
"When space bar pressed"
Show variable
Show variable
Show variable
etc:
"When a pressed"
Hide variable
Hide variable
Hide variable
etc:
And then delete them both at the end before you upload

That is a pretty good idea to use until the Scratch Team solves the problem...
Thanks!
