can't edit a specific rehearsal mark
im trying to edit (actually delete) a particular reheasal mark, but Im not able to open it up to edit... i unhid empty staves to see if it was attached to a particular note, and also hit "select->all similar elements" but it wont let me edit this specific one.
is there a way to find the note or rest i may have attached it to? Other workarounds would be to delete alll of the reheasal marks and start fresh, or can i paste a text frame on top of it to mask it?
thanks...

You need to attach your score and tell us which rehearsal mark you want to edit/delete. Attach the score by replying, then click "Choose a file" that will appear below your response. Make sure you don't attach the score that starts with a . and ends with a ,
Could you attach here your score?
will do. i fixed one piece that has this by just deleting the rehearsal marks and doing them over, but the other piece has way more, so ill post that score shortly. Thanks!
in this case its a staff text i cant edit, the ritardando note at the very bottom of page 5... but same issue. I cant find what I attached it to, to edit it or move it around.

Do you mean the note that says
"At some point, cue to Solo Vamp 1 and continue through rest of chart (solo vamp 1, solo vamp
out, bridge, melody II, melody 1, rit. and hold on Mel. 1 repeat)"
If so, this is a text frame that you appended to the end of the score using Add->Frames->Append...

You added the text "ritardando on repeat..." to measure 81. In this case add a second staff text there, select the measure, right click on the staff text to select all similar in the same range and resset the offset inside the inspector.

cool, thanks... how did you find that it was in measure 81?

With the same procedure (select all similar staff text and correcting the offset) -the first time without selecting a range of measures.

Probably the same issue as with the rehearsal marks: you dragged it off page.
Select one staff text, right-click, select all, reset positions in Inspector (or by pressing Ctrl+R)
This will move that particular staff text to page 4, there you can delete it.
Downside: you need to reposition the others now.
Or stitch to continues mode, find, select and delete that5 element there, switch pack to page mode
Known issue, see e.g. #21860: Dragging elements to other pages makes them lost

the continuous mode trick was an easy fix, thanks so much!
