Glad to see that nailed it. =:^) I thought it looked/sounded like that problem. My prefs are apparently the reverse of most folks as I prefer dark backgrounds with light text, and when colored groups were first introduced, only the per-group settings were available, and the default was a dark text, which naturally didn't show up so well on my dark backgrounds, so I asked for and got the default group settings in main pan prefs, which took care of the problem for me. But as I result I knew /exactly/ what it felt like to have disappearing groups, and had a pretty good idea what was doing it. =:^) What I can't explain, however, is why just those two groups were set that way. Presumably you'd remember setting group color if you had, and you didn't remember it, so I'm at a loss. But whatever caused that setting for /just/ those groups, I recognized the symptoms from when they happened to me, and was able to point you in the right direction, so it's all good! =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
