One time that happened to me when i was making a bio project. Every time i try to make one a glitch happens and screws the whole thing up.
Back in 1.4, i tried making them twice but the dissapearing text bug went up.

That happened to me once. I opened up my project and it was just a white page. I had to do it all over again. (This wasn't my scratch computer.)

i have had kind of the same glitch, still broken, costumes loaded while project was loading, clicked on it, and the coloring of a certain part has gone. the project auto - saved, and also the one on my computer saved afterwards in the same way. PLEASE PLEASE tell me there is a way i can fix it, it was an AT!!!!! here it is: http://scratch.mit.edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/10767791/ NOOOO! I SPENT SO LONG ON IT!

Very interesting. I have had weird glitches, but normally they fix if I reload the editor.

i think that i should create a test account and try to replicate some of the glitches that i see or hear about and then put the results in one of these forums so that these glitches can be fixed faster! i always like to see important bugs like this fixed as quickly as possible!

What is the customs button?

Also, glad to hear that you got this awful glitch fixed!

Keep two versions internal please or as a minimum:

It would be great if we could stop autosave,
at least during one look inside session.

I´d like to play around with a shared project without damaging the working version.

With current autosave that is not possible without a test account.

The disadvantage of the test account is,
in case i´d like to keep my changes it would end up as remix.
In case i made a lot of changes i can´t remember every step for my original version.

Any workaround?

Yay! One of my projects from 1.4 had blank scripts,so I couldn't see what was in them, when 2.0 came out and you transferred all my work.

I had to delete it all. And I didn't even hit the costume button.

Maybe you could add a restore option? To restore saved work if stuff gets haywire in the project system?

I thank you for taking the time to read this.

You can't restore it if data has vanished.

I was on a remixed project by me, (About Me) and all the sprites were gone apart from the bio sprite (Which I was editing in costumes). I reloaded the page and nothing happened. The sprites only went back in the list (They were always in the project) after I went back to the Scratch homepage and back into the project. I use a MacBook 10.4.11 with Safari as my browser. This was before the Thursday update and I don't know if it has been fixed as it would be hard to act out again.

i had a glitch that when it was loading in another persons game, i would click the green flag in the corner, and the project would result blank. this is basicly the same problem. please comment on my profile if you need more info (because it won't give me mail about forms.
