Storyline360: unable to remove item at top of slides? Only comes up in preview mode on the screen.
Go to the Slide Master. It probably has that content on a layer, plus a trigger to show the layer when the timeline starts. You can either edit it there, or delete the layer and the trigger if you don't want it to show. Be sure to check all the Master Layouts.
FYI: Content on the Slide Master appears on all the slides. However, except for Placeholders, objects inserted on the Master appear below the content on a slide. And they don't appear on the Timeline, so you can't bring them to the front. The solution is to put them on a layer that shows when the timeline starts. You discovered the main drawback of that solution: you don't see those items while editing.
