More then one text box.

On Scratch you can only have one text and I suggest making more then one text thing.

Re: More then one text box.

Yes! The only complication I can see with this is managing all those text boxes. Not being able to just edit text (like what happens in MS Paint) would be a problem.

I think he/she is saying that having multiple text boxes would be hard to manage. like trying to click on them even though they don't have a clear outline.

EDIT: I can't believe I forgot this, I support!

Well if you have multiple text boxes, you need a way to select them so they can be edited.

Maybe when you click on the little blacks square...  big_smile

Closed.

While necroposting is usually discouraged, in cases where it is to re-suggest an idea it is usually okay. Let's stick to the older topic thread as posted by lilacfuzz101.  smile
