X/Y Disappeared

In the bottom-right corner of the window in non-presentation mode offline Scratch, there is a little bit that says "x: (number)  y: (number)". When the glitch occured, the grey area completely disappeared (except for a rectangle around the numbers) along with the "x" and the "y", and blinked occasionally when I moved the mouse.  This was only a minor glitch and is temporary, having no permanent implications, but what is interesting is that it doesn't trigger an error even with error catching on.  Any ideas?  I have a screenshot that I can upload if necessary.

I'm using Windows Vista (which is a problem itself  tongue  )

Paragraph #1 reply: This may be related to the disappearing text glitch. What were you doing before it happened?

Sorry i didn't see your reply, Magnie.  It may have to do with the fact that I had three Scratch windows open.   tongue

Re: X/Y Disappeared

Yeah, it's probably a
- memory error
- common glitch that happened to me too which has nothing to do with memory.

I alternate between a Vista laptop and a XP desktop.  Right now I'm using the XP.  It takes 10 minutes to boot up so I usually use the Vista, but the Vista is having technical issues.  And, believe it or not, it's not an OS problem.   yikes
