right now the backpack is useful, but if you fill it with enough things it becomes a huge mess. suppose you're like me, and you want to make a bunch of procedures readily available. you'd put them in the backpack for easy use, right? so i propose this: users should be able to sort the backpack by these categories: sprite, script, costume. this would make it much easier.

also one should be able to name the scripts in the backpack, e.g. “arctangent”, or “distance formula”. they all say “script” and the image is too miniscule to tell what they are at a glance (which becomes an issue when there are lots)

iOS-style (non-nesting, aggregate icon) folders would also be nice.

It also hates Bitmap. I put Bitmap images in there, stare at them for five minutes to confirm THEY ARE IN THE BACKPACK, and when I open another project, they're gone. Quit trying to kill Bitmap, Scratch Team!
Bump, this seems very useful.
Support, this is a great way to sort backpacks and would be helpful for finding the one sprite among a bunch of sounds.

Yup, but if they made a storage box layout with a search bar for example:

| |Search assets… |
| ______ ______
| |name | |name |
| ______ ______
| |name | |name |
| ______ ______
| |name | |name |
|


Yea you get the point…
So instead of a backpack a storage box, that works like file explorer on PCs/Laptops!
It would be great if ST worked on this.

If you read this much thanks for reading <333
