I'm guessing that my Sony Vaio is running without enough RAM (I have 1Gig but that many not be enough). I find that when I'm working in a scene, doing dialogue and moving the characters around, I try to right click on character to get the bubble screens up and only the "look at" bubble appears. I find if I shut down MS and then restart it, I can get the right click for all the bubbles to work for a little while. The same is true when I left click on a floor mark to turn it, many times no arrows will appear. I shut down again and when I come back up everything is fine for a while. Is there a way to simulate a restart of the program without having to actually close it out entirely?
As a side note, it would be great if when we are working on a scene, is it possible to have MS remember the last position we were in when we return to a scene. (I'm not setting cameras at the moment so I don't have a camera viewpoint saved.)

I'm pretty sure that this is logged and being looked at. There is a bigger issue with memory available under Java which is being looked at as well.

I'll check and get back to you...

Yes, I'm having the same problem with my Vaio laptop, mrjoyce. I'm glad I'm not the only one - I was getting worried. I had to give up my tinkering for awhile because I was so tired of quadruple clicking everything to make it work (and only sometimes at that). sad.gif
