Thanks for replying Harakou.

I don't want it to be a button or anything the user can control, i wanted it, so that when you import a sprite it includes the alpha channel with the sprite, that way, there will be no difference in the interface.
OR
Make a studio for the advanced programmers that includes a few extra features, that you HAVE to sign up to use it.

Thankyou symbiankreatif for the feeback!

Oh I see. You just want it to preserve the existing alpha channel in imported images, not necessarily create and edit one. That's an idea I support.

Scratch Entertainment Studio would be supreme if you added two features, which are functions and an alpha channel.

Functions:
I made an awesome button script, which works perfectly, but i have to keep copy&pasting it to every button i made, and this makes my project look boring, cluttered and look like i have done little work.

Alpha Channel:
There are a hundred games i wanted to make, but can't because it looks terrible.
Adding an outer glow on sprites makes it instantly look professional, but i can't because there is no alpha channel.

Please can you incorporate these features as soon as possible.

Thanks for reading.

Not sure if someone has thought of this yet (Well they probably have, but just haven't upload an example...) but you can implement "functions" in Scratch by using the broadcast and wait function, an Array (list) to store the function's "arguments" and a variable for that sprite to be used as the return value if you want one.

I put together an example here: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/TaylorG8/1914989

I implemented a function named DrawRect that paints colored rectangles on the screen using the Pen functions.

Take a look, maybe that solution is good enough for you until real functions are implemented in Scratch 2.0 (hopefully)...
