The Pen Extension is an extension in Scratch 3.0 that allows sprites to control their pens, as well as stamp themselves onto the stage and remove all pen marks. Before Scratch 3.0, these blocks were not an extension, and were located in a category called Pen Blocks.Template:Cite post To use them, they must be enabled in the "Extensions" section of the editor. Older blocks are kept but hidden.Template:Cite post There are 9 blocks. Pen blocks are useful when creating a one sprite one script project, allowing the following actions to happen:

  • Stamp the sprite
  • Put the pen down
  • Release the pen
