    Quark Xpress 7.31: scroll bars appear mid-screen, lock screen

    More and more frequently now, usually while editing text, scroll bars appear in the middle of the screen (sometimes they're horizontal, sometimes vertical) and lock up Quark. Alt-Tabbing back & forth to other programs doesn't fix the problem, like it does with other wierd stuff Quark sometimes does.  Only by zooming in or out using keyboard shortcuts am I able to make the scroll bars go away and resume editing.  When this does start happening, it seems to keep happening repeatedly. Neither rebooting nor clearing preferences folders causes it to stop. 

    I have a screen capture of this as a jpeg, but it appears that this site only lets me insert images from a url.

     Anyone have any ideas on how to make this stop?

     I'm running Xpress 7.31 on Mac OS 10.4.11, aka "Tiger", I think, (why does mac confuse us with their "hip" nick-names?!).  It's loaded with all the SDRAM cards it can hold and this doesn't act like an issue related to limited processing or memory.

    We have this exact problem on two machines, both running QuarkXpress 7.5 and Mac OS 10.4.11. Were you ever able to find a solution other than zooming in/out?
