And I 2nd Tom V's suggestion when you cannot get to those objects hanging

I have always done what Joe Riccardi suggested but before I learned that it
seems like the number of individual objects you could grab was 87. At one
time it was possible to drop objects outside the viewable pallet area. Since
you couldn't grab them anymore you could never delete them. Grouping and
transferring to a new graphic and then deleting the old graphic was the only
way I knew how to get rid of the non viewable objects.

then whatever you decide. It is much easier lining up 2 objects than 1,000.

you are lassoing. If you are trying to select them by shift and mouse
clicks, the objects may be behind other (grouped or non-grouped) objects.
Try selecting them individually and ungrouping them all, or moving the ones
you want to the front.

there is a limit in the number of objects that one could select doing drag
and drop in Display Builder? I have to move a lot of objects and when I am
trying to select all of these objects some of them remains unselected.
