Re: Scratch stops working

Describe the problem more precidely. What version of Scratch do you have? Did it happen to you before? Did you have to restart your computer after it happened? Did you try to do it again?

Re: Scratch stops working

Is the script very long? Is the file big in MBs? How much memory have you got? Is there a lot of sprites/graphics? Is there a lot of scripts? Did the text disappear?

Re: Scratch stops working

Okay then, lets see...... It has happened before, I was on Scratch 1.4, I had two scripts, one is just a music one and  the other a page turning one about 7 inches long and 3 inches thick. No text dissapeared (Thank god)!

Re: Scratch stops working

I've only had a few problems with presentation mode. They are.

- Opening presentation mode with other windows open can cause the focused window to jump. Leaving presentation mode running full screen behind the window. (Easily fixed. Give focus back to Scratch)
- Opening presentation mode will sometimes leave the taskbar showing for a few seconds

Scratch has only stoped working a couple of times for me. Thats why if it's an important project I have multiple copies.
