View sets c/text to the title of the script. The "text"-facet is used for
the title of a window. If you use b or c as a normal face after that, you
will see the text in the face.

faces, which are used as a window should habe parent-face = none. After
the first 'view - command, they are set to the lay-face.
>> win-offset? b
== 128x20
(This shows: rebol will render the green/red color not at 0x0, but at
128x20. Since the face is not great enough, you don't see it.
This will fix it:
b/parent-face: none
c/parent-face: none
>> win-offset? b
== 0x0
Hope that helps,
