In the ZIM Skool lesson on Data, there is a statement that says "A collage is a bunch of objects that can be placed to make a picture. In the digital world, if a creator (user ) makes a collage, it would be helpful to save the collage for when they come back."
I was just wondering if a person is wprking in an Adobe animate, say for example, dragging and dropping movieclips to a new arrangment, is there a way that this can be saved for when the person returns to the activity and the new arrangement has been preserved?
So let's say they have done a drawing with the Pen. Is there a way they could come back to that at a later stage and keep working on the Pen drawing, until it is cleared by them?
Thanks

Nice feature I also would like ..
Pen isn't yet into the possibility
I tried the pen in the https://zimjs.com/story
Any property can be stored. So for moving something.... store the x and y and when they come back, set the x and y. This can be done in Animate versions as well.
For a Pen, there are no built-in properties that let you recreate the drawing. You could try recording the x and y of the nib as the pen is being drawn. Then recreate lines with something like the spline() function - under the ZIM Code section.
Alternatively, let them use Blob and Squiggle to make shapes. These can be recorded more easily.
Another way is let them store a bitmap of it - it would not be editable but it would show what it looks like. You can write Bitmaps to the server using PHP, etc. That would be up to you, the developer to work out.
