Re: Major Glitch
It does appear that the glitch is related to the size of the project. One costume under a sprite has a small text. Whenever I try to either write more or color the whole background white, all of the text in all of Scratch disappears. When I exported the sprite and tried it in a blank project, however, it worked perfectly fine.

Look at my Art Turtorial project. That project is fairly small. It just has about 7 backgrounds with a lot of text.

Re: Major Glitch
Happened to me too.
Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Did the glitch occur with that project? Because it is a small file size, it could be that some scripts, costumes, or text are putting some stress on Scratch, and it just can't run properly.

Not for me. I downloaded 1.3.1 a few months ago, and it's constantly happening with my projects...
Oh, I don't have 1.3.1 yet but in the discription they said it was fixed.

Sorry that I can't (yet) reproduce it, Paddle2See. I downloaded your project, copied it to various machines and ran it under several Scratch versions (official releases as well as development versions), but everything worked fine and flawlessly (I wanted to place a sad face here, but then reconsidered this to be somewhat unfitting for not getting any error, lol!).
Those screenshots certainly look scary. Red areas with yellow x's usually indicate that a "Morph" (a visual component) cannot be displayed in Squeak. This sometimes happens if there is an error in creating that morph, i.e. if there's a divide-by-zero, a NaN or Infinity in the morph's position or extent. Some weeks ago (before 1.3.1) we ran into such an error when trying move a sprite by log(0) steps, which evaluated to negative Infinity. I'm not sure what could be causing this behavior in your project or if it is related to the Disappearing Text Bug. The size of the text should'nt be any problem, and neither cause the Disappearing Text Bug, nor the "red-area" thing you're observing, Scratch is made to handle a *lot* of data.
I also notice that the script in the screenshot shows a red outline indicating some kind of error (which I can't see in your project). I guess I'll go and try some more things now...
Oppisite of Infinity = Negfinity.

I have the same glitch, I make very big projects and in my newest one (Cube Dude) sometimes when I edit a costume all the text goes away literally ALL of it the all the text in scratch. to fix this I saved my project (this was tricky because the text for the file menu and the save button had disappeared) and I closed scratch. When I opened scratch up again all the text was back except for in the costumes and backgrounds then to fix it in the costumes and backgrounds I click the edit button then pressed ok for each one and that fixed it. I would greatly appreciate it if scratch fixed this glitch.
