I purchase a flower emitter... laid it on the ground and clicked... now I have a huge amount of flowers and wish to delete them all... problem is I can't see the emitter to delete it or take it. I have tried the ctrl alt T, but still can't see the emitter. Can someone please suggest something I can do to get rid of it?

Thank you so much!

While in Build mode (easiest to just right click-edit on a prim) draw a big yellow box over the areas you think holds the emitter. If you collect too many things you can set "Select only my objects" in Tools. You can fish around a bit keeping an eye on how many objects you select and what they are by looking at the edit pane.

You could also turn particles off and highlight transparent and/or use beacons.

Or look in wireframe.

Osprey, thank you so much for replying! Sadly I still have flowers everywhere. I went into build and a small box did show... I removed it.... cleared my cache and relogged. Came back and the flowers were still there. I tried it again.... and another box was there... I deleted that as well. Still no luck. I am at a loss now ..... but thank you again for trying to help me.

If you hold "Ctrl Alt Shift =" it will toggle particles off and those flowers will disappear so you can hunt around uninhibited.

Worst case, post the slurl of where this is and somebody might come by and point out the emitter to you.

I'd probably use Beacons for this one - they're under the View menu. Turn on beacons for particle sources and the emitter should be obvious.
