Text problem

I am making a project that has a lot of text in it and occasionally, all the text will just disappear. And I don't mean just the one costume, I mean ALL of the text in the whole program, including the costume names and the file, edit, etc. buttons. Right now, the only scripts it has are
<when green flag clicked>
<switch to costume[ costume1 ]>

and

<when[ space ]key pressed>
<next costume>

as well as well as two background sprites with:
<when green flag clicked>
<set[ ghost ]effect to( 77  >

Is this a glitch or is my computer broken?

Re: Text problem

Here is an example.

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Y6io2KRw7yg/TrmtoQvSQII/AAAAAAAAAKE/MID2QKuyC5o/s512/scratchglitchingtext.png

The places where there should be text are circled in red. The reason the text in Scratch itself are visible is because I had to restart it and I couldn't get a screenshot of it like that since it was so bad (even the mouse placement was off, it was a nightmare). In some cases, the font selection also broke and not only could I not see the text, there was what looked like a random slew of fonts like Typewriter and the Scratch font.

Re: Text problem

Some more screenshots, because it happened again.

Ugh. This time it was only the text in Scratch and not the costumes.

Sometimes both happen at the same time, especially if I save it. Also, when I click on something, my cursor will be at the right place but it will click some distance away. Also, when I move my mouse over the top bar, it turns transparent, although I can still click on it.

Re: Text problem

Aw poopsy. Sorry for wasting your time.

I guess this should be closed then?
