Re: Shift Click on File

A project summery is saved to a folder that you specify, and you can open it in a text-editor such as Notepad. It can tell you things such as the number of scripts and sprites in the project, the person who uploaded the project, what day it was saved, and a few other things.  smile  It can be useful for finding the specific day that you (or someone else) uploaded a specific project - for example, if you know that you uploaded a project on the day you joined Scratch, but can't remember what day that was, you can use the project summary to find out that  big_smile

Yeah, Wolfie1996 got it right - it's actually really handy! I've never written multiple project summaries, but writing project summaries can be really helpful!
