Thanks Alan
I find if you scroll the page back and forward out of the viewport they come back :-) Tried this first but it didn't work. I'm using a fairly old Samsung R320 laptop - I don't recall having this issue before 14.10 but I could be wrong. I'm also using the metacity fallback window manager after Unity lost all it's settings and the launcher failed to display twice. After spending ages fixing it the first time I gave up. I'll have a play with the window manager and see what happens.
