Cannot grab floating element in score
Hello!
I encoutered a strange behaviour in two different times (image attached), where a sudden element is "floating" in the score. I cannot seem to grab it in order to inspect, reposition or delete.
I can send the original score at request.
In stance 1 - a floating fermata,
In stance 2 - a floating "prima volta" line.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Note - it does not appear in the final extracted PDF, oddly enough.
=)

Score needed, image doesn't help here
Switch to continuous mode and see whether you can grab it there and reset it

Try: Right click->Select all Similar Elements->Ctrl+R

I don't see the problem from your image in that score
Well, I do see a stray fermata and Shoichi's trick fixed that
The attached also removes all spacers and uses a text frame rather than a negative height vertical frame for that text at the end. Your attempts to outsmart MuseScore's placements doesn't seem to result in a good layout
Thanks for the quick replies!
I was able to select sumilar elements, which enabled me to delete them all and re-enter them.
How is it optional to use that to grab just the one?
Thanks

If you drag elements off page you can't select them anymore. Workaround is to grab a similar element, then all and reset. Or use continuous mode

Or, if you know where it originated from (because that measure is now "missing" the marking) use the Alt-arrow commands to browse through the measure until the status bar shows you've selected the rogue element.
