Delete option missing for text boxes.

[RobinL37192]

I can't delete a text box. There is no delete option when I highlight the box.

Hello @RobinL37192 ,

If the text block is part of a pre-built or generated layout, such as a Read More block, it may not be able to be deleted without requiring the entire layout or row to be deleted.

Hello, I cannot delete my empty text boxes. They are stand alone text boxes that I have inserted, not part of a generated layout. Thank you.

Hello @SharonS1852 ,

Please see our article on handling blocks, layouts, and sections for visual guidance on deleting different block types, if you're not immediately seeing the trash can options when clicking on them.

The "trash can" delete option is missing from the tool bar. Has this been moved to a new location? I am trying to delete an empty textbox at the bottom of a column that I didn't use for this month. When I click on photos, they have a menu with a trash can. When I click on any text box, there is no delete option. Please advise.

Hello @user54664 ,

You're likely at a very specific zoom % for your particular browser screen view and device's resolution, causing the toolbar to run off the screen and require side-scrolling. Either zoom out (CTRL - on PC, CMD - on Mac) one tap so you can see the full toolbar, or zoom in (CTRL + on PC, CMD + on Mac) one tap so you can see the compacted toolbar with the three dots menu for expanded options.

As an example from my particular device resolution and browser zoom settings:
