Can't get images, actors or any rules to show up / work

I just started with the "Gamesalad Creator" software a coupple of days ago, and I have tried to make a coupple of things, on all my four windows computers, and every time I try to do something, it bugs out! This is really irritating! Here is one example. I try to make a new actor and when I do so, I add the image to the actor, and try to drag it onto the screen. The first bug I have, is when I try to drag the actor onto the screen, it won't work. I can drag it out like 15 times, but it doesn't show up on the screen. Then I go onto the layers section, where there are showing 15 items on the list under the background layer, but still doesn't show up on the screen. I made it so that I can drag one of the "layers" onto the screen, and it will show up and I place it in the right position (I check the x and y axic), but when I preview the project, the picture is not showing in the right place, and usually you can barrely see some of the picture.
Here you can see what I mean by the picture is not in the correct place, and here is a picture of what it looks like before I preview.
As you can see, everything shoud work, I guess. It would be really nice with some help! Thank you!

is it visible in the editor? or only not visible in preview?
and what about the rotation? it also has to be a full number
do you have behaviors in that actor? something with destroy or change scene or something?
the Windows version ignores your regional settings, that is, the decimal "," and "." are swapped from how Gamesalad expects them. Thus the decimal places get added to the whole number, 200.55 becomes 20 055 making the actors be waaay off screen.
You can change these regional settings specifically.
Open the Windows Control Panel. Go to Regional Options, and change the Numbers and Currency settings.
This works, you just probably need to change it back for other Programs.
@CodeWizard, please let the Windows version respect the Regional setting. Tnx

Is there a way to convert (make it windows compatiple) these programmatically, by going through all the critical values and removing decimals. This windows version is very raw and to be honest almost unusable.
