Odd Floating Item In My Home

I have what appears to be a floating "Title" in my home. I can not delete it for the life of me, and it got me into trouble by attempting to do so. I deleted my house instead.

So, while the house is gone, here I am trying my hardest to get rid of this "thing" and I just can not click on it to either delete it, or take it back into my inventory. The funny thing is it says "curious curious" Sure is.

Anyone have any idea how to get rid of this annoyance? I want to put the house back asap, but it was sitting right on the floor and that's what started all of this to begin with. I already went through my inventory and I am not wearing any titles, if that helps.

Hi,

The title is probably part of a transparent item. "Highlight transparent" might show it up, if you haven´t tried that already.

Also, you can't "delete" hovering text, in my experience. First attempt to change the text to " " by trying /title {space} or once you find the item with highlight transparent, editing the notecard that is in it...it's easy to find the text that it is displaying in the notecard and delete what is in between the "quote" marks to clear it out.

To Show transparent prims: "Ctrl + Alt + T" you will see them in red. If you delete/return/take the object the Floating Text will dissapear.

Scrubber, a free script that you can put in a prim with hovering text that cleans it out, great for removing particles too. I'll try and remember to send you it in game.

Here it is:

default
{
state_entry()
{
llSetSitText( "" );
llSetTouchText( "" );
llParticleSystem( [ ] );
llSetText( "", ZERO_VECTOR, 1.0 );
llTargetOmega( ZERO_VECTOR, 0, 0 );
llSetCameraAtOffset( ZERO_VECTOR );
llSetCameraEyeOffset( ZERO_VECTOR );
llSitTarget( ZERO_VECTOR, ZERO_ROTATION );
llSetTextureAnim( FALSE , ALL_SIDES, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0.0 );
llStopSound();
llOwnerSay("This Prim is Clean... ";);
llRemoveInventory( llGetScriptName() ); // vanish without a trace...
}
}

The scrubber script is also great for removing annoying bling from modifiable items like jewellery and shoes etc. If it's the one I have I believe it's available free from the Particle Lab.
