Select all puts a rectangular selection area around the x and y
extremities of all the selected shapes. If the selection area is
extending beyond the area that you think it should be then it must be
because there is a shape there.

I agree with Paul, there ought to be something out there. If there is a
really small shape off to the right, then "select all" may not show it.
There are a couple of things to try:
1.) Instead of select all, draw a selection rectangle around the blank area
to the right and see if that captures anything, or,
2.) Go to menu bar > View > Drawing explorer and bring up the DE window.
Select Foreground Pages > Page-1 (or whatever page you are on) > Shapes.
There will be a list of all the shapes on the page. You can click each one
and it will be selected on the normal drawing page. This ought to highlight
the outlying shape(s). You may have to zoom in to see what's there.
