Really helpful improvement!
For the next version of Scratch It would be a very good idea to import costumes as strips (A large image containing the different frames in an animation as a static image)
Button Preview
So that you can take a piece of the image like
THAT is what I want!
When you select Import as strip you write in the selection box that takes the piece of image and how many pieces of the image. Finally you select the distance between selection boxes.
All in the same window so you can drag the selection box and place it on the first frame.
Thats my idea.
Please reply.

Re: Really helpful improvement!
People have to specially arrange those strips. I don't know any program that does that for you. I don't see it as a particularly useful feature either.

Why cant you just blank out the backgrounds using the bucket tool. Then you can easily extract each individual image.

Well, the program would have no way of knowing which image to put in what order. I think it would be useful, but only if it could actually work. I doubt it would be possible to make though..

You don't understand. You place the boxes for the individual frames in that animation.

You mean you make a box for each costume? As in you get back to doing the same thing as just extracting them inividually.
