Bug / Incident Report: Staff/System text will not delete
Hi all - I would like to remove Staff/System text but - even with surgery - I can't remove the word.
Please see image / attachment (Screen Shot 2022-02-12 at 6.21.30):
* Black circle shows the measures I deleted after a last attempt to delete a floating, useless word.
* The lower circle shows the floating word that I can't delete.
Hoping I don't have to completely rewrite this chart because of one word: "Ritard" - which just sits randomly in the score.
Cheers,

Check if there is still

Thank you - It looks like the offending "Ritard" is gone but all other staff text is gone.
- I think Ctrl + A -> Ctrl + R might be the better option - (but that also repositions my existing staff text to its default location)
Kind regards,
Type Ctrl+A, Ctrl-R and note that the Ritard now sits on the next page, under measure 46, there you can delete it.
You apparently dragged it off of that page, it is a know issue that elements dragged off page can't get selected, and because of that can't get deleted

Thanks again! - but that also repositions my existing staff text to its default location - not a big problem as I can drag them back where I want them.

Better don't drag, but use the Inspector to offset them
These rogue texts are sometimes easier to select in Continuous View. Is the attached file better?

The file looks good to me. I fixed my version of the document and moved on. Not sure if I answered your question.
