Default After putting a text box behind text I can't select it anymore

Hi everyone, I'm preparing a paper form and for some fields I'd like to specify what information the compiler has to insert (a kind of caption). Each field is underlined (the user has to compile above that line) and I used text boxes for the 'caption'. I already set 0pt as its padding (border is transparent) but still covers the line if I put it close to it (as I want to do).
I thought I could manage with the 'text arrangement' settings so I set 'behind text' for the box text (see screenshot attached). The thing is that after doing this I can't manage anymore to select the box!
I suppose there still should be a way to select it, do you can help?
