Text Disappearing Problem

I am programming a game and scratch and everything has been working fine until today... Every once and a while all the text in the game will disapear. To get it back i have to go to each of their costumes and click edit than cancel, and then they reappear. This wouldnt be that big of a deal if i didnt have 15 or so sprites i had to do it to. Please help

Re: Text Disappearing Problem

This is a pretty common problem. I found it occurs most when I am using 1.3 projects on 1.4 . As far as I am aware of, there is no practical way to fix them. Your method is the only one that has ever worked for me (and even sometimes it DOESN'T work)! To avoid doing the extra work, I would save pretty often, so even if you lose a few scripts, you probably won't lose your costumes.

Good luck!

Re: Text Disappearing Problem

You can also press ctrl s when text disappears, close scratch. reopen and reopen your project. then click save about 2-4 times.


Hai.

Re: Text Disappearing Problem

i know a better way to fix it. save it, close the window, open it up again and save again! it works for me.
