Tracking down a mystery thing ....

I have a small blue rectangle in one of my designs, in a part studio, in another part studio as well, but it also appears in the main assembly. It is unclickable, unhideable and it appears to travel by means of deriving.
I possibly got infected by it when placing a dxf into a sketch for the logo. The rectangle lives a bit off the sketch plane, though. It is not a part of the only sketch in the part studio:
If I hide everything in the part studio, the rectangle is still there. Maybe I deleted some connected geometry at some point and now I can't figure out what it is referencing to. How would you go about finding out about the origin of the thing and subsequently get rid off it?

That's what I thought first. It persisted over severals sessions and days, though. Today, while I was working on it, it went away at one time, can't actually say when it exactly was . I had been deleting some duplicate mate connectors shortly before I first noticed it was gone. Probably CAD voodoo … :o)
@martin_kopplow you've been visited by the CAD fairy! make a wish :P
It appears so. I made a wish and asked for a much improved section view management. We'll see what the CAD fairy can do … ;0)
@martin_kopplow new section stuff or no the next update is very soon and it's always really good stuff :) If you have any specific features you want don't forget to see if people are already asking for it in the feature requests section and go vote for it. I imagine you're vote may count more as a PRO user
