Cannot drag scripts on a sprite thumbnail when in small stage mode

Well, we all know that dragging a script from the workspace to a sprite's thumbnail will duplicate the script to that sprite.

I seem to be unable to do this when I set the interface to small stage mode. What happens is that the sprite thumbnails do not highlight when I try dragging scripts over them. I can't duplicate any script unless I switch over to full stage mode. EDIT: I just tested it out again. The script does copy, but the first two lines of thumbnails don't become highlighted when dragging the script over them.

Just curious if anyone notices this when working with the Scratch 1.4 (official release) interface in small stage mode.

Oh, if this helps: I'm working on a Windows XP Toshiba Satellite laptop with a 1200*800 screen resolution.

Nopes cheddar it works fine for me maybe ur script is too long scratch takes some time to process longscripts across with coping them hover the script over small thumbnail for a while and it will highlight  smile

Okay... I just tested it out again... apparently, the script does copy, but the first two lines of thumbnails don't become highlighted, making it a bit difficult determining which sprite I'm copying the script to.

I have seen it, maybe it is a response to the smaller window.

Do you really need to use small stage when you have a 1200 * 800 pixel screen?  tongue

I think it's for working with wide scripts. ^^

And Cheddar, I tried it and it highlights normally for me.  smile

Did you try reinstalling Scratch?
