Can't Get Rid of a Hovering Flip Title

Hello -

I was dragging things out of inventory to see what they were and I dragged something onto the floor called a Flip Title.

It stays stationary and the text says :

Visit the G****R Casino The Place 2B in SL

It is not attached to an object that I can see, the words just stay in one spot in the place I originally dragged it to. I can't right click and delete or edit it. When I try to click it, other surrounding walls light up, not the text I am trying to get rid of.

Please help !

Thanks in advance.

Try going into edit mode, then right-click and drag around the area you dropped it onto. That should show you any invisible prims.

Hi Frasky,
Flip titles are always transparent objects, the text just hovers above them. You need to active "highlight transparent". You will see the object highlighted in red. Then you can pick it up.

Good luck :)

I believe it's Ctrl-Alt-T?

"title off" usually works. :)

But seriously, listen above.

/me suspects you'll find it with View->Highlight Transparent but, if you don't, check what kind of icon it has in your inventory. If it's a box, check again with Highlight Transparent - it's there somewhere! If it's a script, you probably dragged it into one of your floor objects and now the text is coming from your floor...
