Compatibility issues with Scratch Addons

Open rgantzos opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

ScratchTools and Scratch Addons have both received reports of compatibility issues via feedback and issues. Here's one:

The ScratchTools "Default to Local Variables" addon seems to have a conflict with the Scratch Addons "Switch variables between "For all sprites" and "For this sprite only"". The conflict appears when renaming a global variable. The global variable is redefined to be local. I would expect only set NEW variables to be set to local, not the redefining already defined variables.

Of course I don't which addons, or if both, is responsible, so I am alerting both developers.

Here's another:

I've noticed multiple places where ScratchTools and Scratch Addons conflict with each other. I use multiple browser extensions, but I don't want to have to uninstall Scratch Addons.

Is there any compatibility coming in the future? Now that there are more popular browser extensions, I think it's a good idea to try to work on compatibility. Please aim for compatibility. Even if it isn't your first priority, it should be one of them.

Compatibility should be a goal for both extensions, I've made a fix for the first issue.

Here's something I've noticed for a while: If you have info button from Scratch Addons and also have the 2.0 editor on ScratchTools, the info button disappears when you try clicking on it and the sprite info doesn't show. Also, if you have hide delete button off, the delete and info button overlaps.

What info button?

Scratch Addons has something called "Collapsing sprite properties".
