I am having an issue (I’m sure simple to fix) where a random text box is showing up on preview/live mode but I can’t see it in design mode. It’s super tiny but I can see that some of the text boxes don’t appear in design mode unless i happen to click on the right spot. I’m sure it’s something simple so would appreciate if anyone can tell me some view option in Design that would show it but I can’t seem to figure out how. Thanks!

Check in the debugger to find the name of the element…

Then search for it by name in the design editor.
