graphic glitch: cant see guis in gui editor

[Proskrito]

when i´m editing guis, i cant see anything if the game is set at 16-bit color. My game and all the graphics are at this color depth, and when i have to edit a gui, i must switch to 256 col., edit the gui and then switch back to 16 bit. otherwise, i see all painted gray (default windows front color, same as the rest of the gui editor window) where its supposed the gui to be seen.
If i scroll the part where the gui should be seen, or i move the floating properties window over that area and then move it away, sometimes i can see the gui under i placed the floating window, o the bit of the gui that have been scrolled. (i hope this make any sense)
it happened to me with the earlier versions of ags i tried, didn´t happen with 2.4 (i think) and then it happens again.
Its not a big problem to switch between colour depths, so if it's not fixed it will be ok.
Anyone has the same problem??

What is your desktop colour depth set to? Make sure it's 24- or 32-bit colour, some people have had problems with lower desktop colour depths.
