Showing & hiding a sprite with right-click/context menu
Having to go from a sprite to another just to hide it (or using a workaround) can get a bit annoying at times due to the entire code pane loading, which can take quite awhile - Adding workarounds like broadcasts can get monotonous, and even those don't solve the issue unless you make a separate broadcast for each sprite and then need to delete it later.

I have the exact same problem as you all the time, and it makes it really time consuming when I'm trying to test my project. This seems like a good solution.

I'm not sure if this exists in 3.0, but when you right click a sprite in the sprite pane in 2.0, there's a hide/show option if that's what you mean:


Also, that wasn't really a feature and was fixed if I'm understanding correctly, but yea.

Finally, a break from bumps
Support. The use I have for this are for debugging features when I'm working on something really big because I'm too lazy to click the hide block in the sprite or it just gets annoyingly tedious after a while.

Good idea. Adding these context menu buttons would also avoid having to load all of the code inside the sprite just for you to show/hide the sprite (good for large sprites). A mockup for this will be in order someday

(#18)Yes, changing it like this would be honestly a lot better than waiting 92 eons just so the sprite loads.

I'll try making a mock-up soon as well also.
