The Scratch Team Made a Grammatical Mistake!

Now... On a sprite, in the area above the scripts, there is an area with a small picture of the sprite and its name. Next to this is a little padlock icon...

If you mouse over the padlock icon (don't click) then it will say this: "draggable on website?"

This is wrong for two reasons, first of all it needs to be capitalised. And secondly "draggable" isn't a real word.

I put this in suggestions because my suggestion is that this gets changed... Somehow... Maybe by magic, who knows?

Re: The Scratch Team Made a Grammatical Mistake!

I think I'm halfway to changing it... But I get that error message that happens when you click "change label". Here's my method at the moment...

Then, I think it has something to do with this:

And this:

However, if I edit the highlighted text, that error message from yesterday comes up...  hmm

This would be nice as well...  hmm


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.

Well... You can edit it, but it doesn't seem to work, look:

Re: The Scratch Team Made a Grammatical Mistake!

True, but it really has no difference on the programing. It still should be changed.

I know that... when I right-click on it, and select "accept", it brings up a message that has the title "Syntax Error", meaning that that part of the text should not be edited...  hmm
