Here is the tutorial: https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/2240/using-folders-to-organize-sprites

It’s in beta, so there might still be small bugs with it.

So for them to “type” something, you will need a textbox (from widget category), and whenever its value changes, you can assign its value to a cloud variable.

CreatiCode

When your project contains many sprites, you can use the “folder” tool to organize them. Here is how:

Create an empty folder

You can mouse over the add sprite button, and then select the “New Folder” button:

A new empty folder will be added:

Enter and Exit a Folder

When you click on the new folder, you will “enter” it. Since it is empty, you will only see a “go up” icon. When you click on it, you will go back up to the starting level (the root level).

Moving sprites into and out of a folder

To move a sprite into a folder, you simply need to drag the sprite and drop it over the folder. The folder will be entered right away so you can make sure the sprite is inside it. Also, click “go up” to go out of the folder, and you will see the sprite is not at the top level anymore.

To move a sprite out of a folder, you can drag it onto the “go up” icon. After that, go out of the folder to check that the sprite has moved there:

Folder Operations

When you right-click on a folder, you will get a menu of 4 choices:

The Open Folder option is the same as clicking the folder to enter it. The Delete Folder option allows you to delete this folder and all its content.

We’ll discuss the other 2 options in more detail below.

Renaming a Folder

When you choose to rename a folder, an input box will pop up for you to enter a new name:

Export and Import a Folder

You can export an entire folder to a file, including all the sprites in it. The file will have the same name as the folder, and its type will be “folder3”. So if the folder is named “assets”, then the downloaded file will be named “assets.folder3”.

You can also import a folder file into a new project. You can reuse the “upload sprite” button, and select the “folder3” file you downloaded before:

Can you give us the project’s URL? We will look into it. This usually doesn’t happen, so it might be related to the specific blocks you are using. Thank you.

A fix will be released in a few days.

@dreamsmp_luck

When a cloud variable is updated by one user, all other users would see the updated value right away. Can you explain what you meant by “typing into the cloud varialbe” and how you would like to show its value to other users?

This is a new national competition for K-12 students on AI. You can build submit a project using the AI blocks on CreatiCode to participate.

The official starting time is September, and the submission deadline is January 2026. However, if you already have an idea, you can start building or learning now.
