Can't Delete Text

I have a drawing from another person and I cannot delete, or even select for that matter, the text in the drawing.Does anyone know what would cause this?
 
Thanks.

Locked layer?

ziemerd 发表于 2022-7-8 12:58:58

None of my layers are locked but here's what I found out.I went through and turned off my layers one by one.I got to the layer that turned this text off and then I turned that layer back on.I was able to select the text then.I have no idea why I would be able to select the text after turning off almost all of my layers except the layer the text was on.I can now select and delete the text but I'm perplexed as to what happened.
 
Any ideas?

Does it happen to be annotative text? If so, run an audit (you don't need to correct errors); that should fix it.

Hmmm...never heard of AUDIT.I was able to delete the text after turning layers off and on...not sure why that would make a difference but it did.It might very well have been annotative text but I couldn't tell because it wouldn't let me select it.
 
Anyway, I learned something new.The AUDIT command might come in handy sometime.
 
Thanks.

Yes it does.
 
And annotative text can get grumpy in such a way now and then, at least in '08.
