Object is not detected by TestComplete. Can it be made detectable?

Hi everyone,  I am trying to understand why I can't detect and therefore map a particular object in my tested web application. Screenshot is attached of the element being inspected. Anyone know why...

Resolved it myself by editing the HTML of the loaded page. The undetected object was a <span>, which was empty,  but had classes assigned for CSS formatting. When I added a text character to it, this then made the control detectable and I mapped it. Removed the added text after mapping and control remained detectable to TestComplete.
