moving a sprite offscreen

Other than chopping the costume into fragments, is it possible to glide/move a sprite completely offscreen? If I set x to 300, it only moves to the max (240 I think) then it "hits the wall" and won't scroll off.

I want my sprite to "walk" onto the screen, cross to the other side, and walk off.

Thanks!

This has been a problem for ages!

One of the things that the scratch team did when they made scratch is make sure the sprites could not exceed the edges if they were still showing. They made this because they thought it would confuse younger scratchers, becuase they would loose the sprites (I think this is true  neutral )

So you're gonna have to make your way around this!

This is the simplist script I can think to help you:
