Multiple unselectable components

I've got several unselectable components on a page, and I cant delete them. This happened when I created a component from a dropdown in the header, and then it took up too much space so I had to break apart the custom component - bam, it disappears from view so you cant delete it! I tried adding the component back but it wont let me, but each time a new copy shows up in the dropdown list for events but I cannot delete these components because there's nothing to select visually.

Now my page is completely screwed up and I cant fix it.

Here's a screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/TvR3T0cGJQ

This is a custom component that you created? Are you able to delete it if you restart the editor?

Yes, a custom component. I cannot even see it (it was in the header bar, but now its unseen) to select it so I can delete it. Restarting the editor doesnt help.

I even created a backup, and reloaded it into a another project, with no difference and so I could play around with it without making my original project worse...

Share the app with support. We'll have our dev. team check it out.

Aric, I don't see described problem in the shared project. Do you still have this problem?

I had to move on with my project so I deleted the pages.

I created a new project I Just shared with you.

Its very easy to duplicate the issue:

Drag a select control onto the screen.
Select Save As Component
Then, drag that new custom component into the header bar.
You'll see it takes up too much space, doubleing the size of the bar.
So, you break apart custom component.
Viola, its "gone" but its still there.
If you test the app you'll see the dropdown(s) but you can select/delete them in the editor.

Hi Aric,

This appears to be a bug. As a workaround you can delete custom Select from header using Delete button of component itself.
