Pro Tools tracks Blacked out???

I have never seen this before.

My left hand side (select tracks active inactive etc) on the mix window page has all of the tracks that are active (usually blue colour) are all black now????? and some of the groups underneath (on the mix window as well) are blacked out as well????

Has anyone seen this before?

when i say blacked out i do not mean greyed out italics like inactive - i mean properly blacked out........?

i am running HD 7.3.1

is this a bug?
when I closed and opened session they are all blue again if in the session like normal......

thanks for replies

Maybe you ran out of track limit. How many tracks you got in the session?

Are you sure Pro Tools found the audio files associated with those tracks? I've had it lose files occasionally, and had to re-sync it manually. The tracks were greyed out, not black as I recall.
