Print Function

With scratch 2.0, a new generation of scratch will evolve, but what about printing from scratch projects? You would be able to print your final creations, documents, or anything else directly from a scratch project. It would print what is currently on the scratch player, but you could program a print preview mode to show and hide specific items. Then a menu (part of the flash player) would come up letting you change printer settings and then confirming to print. Then it would print right from your printer!  wink

I'm not so sure if it would fit under the "looks" category...

This is a mockup of the printer settings screen. Something like this would come up to confirm the print, and change printer settings.

It's not a very good mockup because I did not spend much time on it.  tongue  Sorry!

Re: Print Function

That's a great mockup - and I don't see any holes where one could spam-ishly print something. I support!

Re: Print Function

That sounds great!

There are so many art programs that would benefit from a print function...

Re: Print Function

That is a great idea!


The Scratch Cat & Neigh Pony can get along! If you want BOTH Scratch and Neigh to be the site mascots, copy and paste this into your signature.

Re: Print Function

Great idea! I think it should go under sensing... or maybe a new palette entitled "Interaction". (If there were scripts for webcams they could go there too  smile  )
