HELP - Horizontal Line Segment Width : 0.0000 Won't go away

$

I tried to create a shape around a pin to sink a few vias to a ground plane.  I inadvertently created the shape on a power plane layer.  I tried to delete the island that I had created on the power plane layer, but it left an outline of the shape as a 0 width line.

I try to Display-Status-Update to Smooth and I get the following error:

"1 dynamic shape is still out of date or empty.  Run Out of date shapes Report from Status dialog to identify them." 

There is no Out of date shapes Report in the Status dialog or anywhere else that I can find. 

When I click Shape-Select Shape or Void/Cavity and pick the power plane into which I accidentally drew the Ground Net shape, I can see the outline of the shape.  When I hover my mouse over the outline it tells me: "Horizontal Line Segment Width : 0.0000 Boundary VBAT Net name GND".  However, I cannot delete it.  It disappears when I deselect the VBAT shape.  I can also see the VBAT plane filling in inside the 0 width line, so it appears to be filling in around what it thinks is a trace, I guess.

So, that is the shape that is the dynamic shape that is out of date or empty, but I cannot seem to do anything to get rid of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
