Kbase Article of the Week: ClarisWorks: Edit Menu Commands Affected by Moire Screen Saver →

Apple Support:

If you are running the Moire Screen Saver,you may encounter an incompatibility issue when the screen saver engages. While entering records in a ClarisWorks Database, if the Moire screen saver engages, the Edit Menu commands sometimes change to what they would be in Layout mode. While in this situation, the keyboard commands for “Layout” or “Browse” do not work. They must be selected from the Menu. Choosing Layout and then Browse from the Layout menu usually returns the proper Browse Edit Menu, but sometimes the file must be Closed and reopened to access the “New Record” command. This issue most often occurs after a short pause ,a minute or so, when entering data. Allowing or forcing the “Moire” screen saver to engage always produces the issue.

The solution is to remove Moire from the control panels folder.

That screensaver looks fun.
