I can't see my figures in word

[Jo]

When I insert a figure or picture in my documents, I can't see it, I only see
its borders.

Before, If I want to see it then, I need to press SPACE or any other key.

Now, Even when I press SPACE or whatever,,, still can't see them.

The figures are there,, if I print they come,, but I only can't see them on
screen

I'm having this same problem with graphics in Word2003 and Publisher2003;
not a problem in Powerpoint2003 or Excel2003. Sometimes they don't show at
all--not even a border--the only way I even know there's a graphic on the
page is to move my mouse over where I know it is until the cursor changes to
cross-arrows; other times when I first open the document they are there, but
as soon as I scroll down the page until the graphic scrolls out of view, and
then I scroll back, it's gone (although if I hit print preview and close it
again, they come back). I was beginning to think this was a bug, or I had a
memory problem (although with a gig or memory; and 256mb of video memory, I
wouldn't think so....but maybe the vid memory is a little short for
present-day applications). At any rate, I looked at the settings you
suggested checking, and I always use print layout vice normal; and this is
still happening. Anything else to be aware of that I might change.....the
disappearing graphics are somewhat frustrating.

Thanks,
Bob

Dear All,

I draw text box and write inside it. I schroll down or up to go to the next
page. But, when I go back to see the box, the line disappears. There is only
the text left. I frustrated about this problem. Please help me to solve it.

TQ

Have you tried reducing your hardware acceleration?

No, I haven't. How to reduce it?

Try searching this NG for "hardware acceleration." You'll find dozens of
posts on the subject.

Dear Suzanna,
The problem is solved after slowing down the hardware accelerator. My
computer has problem with the DirectX which I installed it last week.

Thanks for your valuable help.
