Odd error. Ubuntu 12.04 3.0 x64 4gig ram
When I tried to resize the window to increase the work area as shown in a walk through, once you release the mouse it collapses into it self. Everything you did is gone. If you try to open it back up it collapses in to it self again.
I had to restart my system to be able to work with it again. If needed I can try and record a video of it.
I have never seen a program do this before.

If you want the title changed, you should report the first post and say so. Anyway, I reported it for you.
As for the question, sorry, I can't help you.

OH MY GOD FINALLY, A PERSON WITH THE SAME SYSTEM AS MINE!!!!
As for the "Resizing bug" You'll have to use Unity 2D, to do that, Log Out, Beside your username there should be the Ubuntu logo, Click on it and select "Ubuntu 2D" It fixes the "shrinking" reside bug, but you can't go in fullscreen, I don't know why Presentation mode works, Sound works (but choppy), Everything else works, just NOT making it fullscreen. I hope I helped!

I FOUND A FIX!! (Or at least it works for me)
Use this script to run Scratch:

Sound is still choppy for some reason, To fix it you gotta kill pulseaudio

I've looked at Ludburghmdm's fix, and am having good luck with it too.
To summarize, it removes the "-xshm" flag from the VMOPTIONS line in the script that starts scratch, /usr/bin/scratch.
When I make that change:
* Resizing scratch works properly
* Maximizing scratch via the window manager works properly
However, using Scratch's full screen mode still does not work properly.
I tried this on Ubuntu 12.10 / quantal with 3d Unity.
Thanks, Ludburghmdm!
