I believe that you either have your working environment set to "Printout" or you have "Show Page Breaks" turned on (which sets the working environment to "Printout" as a side effect). This focus-shifting is a known bug that occurs when you have the working environment set to "Printout". For future enlightenment, here's a way you can tell what oddball options you might have set. Open the option inspector, set the scope appropriately (i.e. to Global if you want to see options you set there, or to Notebook to see option settings attached to a particular notebook), and change the right-most drop-down item from "by category" to "as text". This will show in a Mathematica list exactly what options are *different* from the defaults at the current scope (it will also show options which are the same, but were set explicitly at that scope). Deleting an option setting from here will return the option to its default value. Sincerely, John Fultz jfultz at wolfram.com Front End Group Wolfram Research, Inc.
