Re: [Qgis-user] Cannot erase a polygon
Thank you for the feedback. Indeed it was an annotation and I was able to delete it thanks to your help.

Re: [Qgis-user] Cannot erase a polygon
Is it possible you drew the polygon as an Annotation object instead of an object in your vector layer? Easy enough to do, and they don’t appear in the layers menu.

How can I erase the polygon? Can you zoom in on the polygon or is it fixed? If you can zoom in then it looks like a QGIS bug, but if the polygon is fixed and you cannot zoom in on it then it looks like a bug in your graphics card drivers. Have you tried to close and re-open the project to see if that gets rid of it?
