Bug Description

When using scratch you can switch to presentation mode by clicking on the icon in the top right. That works fine. But when you exit presentation mode you get a blank white window which is unusable and you have to kill the application. This is 100% reproducible on my machine.

I very much doubt the maintainers will be interested in fixing bugs anymore, since Scratch 2.0 is entirely web-based. http://scratch.mit.edu/

Newer Scratch 1.4.x release - 1.4.0.7 is available at https://github.com/LLK/Scratch_1.4 - maybe this bug is fixed in 1.4.0.7 version?

Also you could check with different desktop environment, for example with GNOME fallback (named GNOME-Flashback in Ubuntu 13.10 and 14.04).

In Ubuntu 15.04 beta Scratch still displays a blank black window (which is unusable) when you exit presentation mode :(
