Blanking Issue in Report layout

Question

I have created a report which has a text box coloured in yellow on the side as a layout.I have added a couple of filters and buttons on top of that. I have set the alignment for the text box as "Send Backwards" and "Send Forward" for the other filters. But when I accidentally click outside the filter, the textbox gets highlighted and the filters disappears. This happens even when viewing the published report on power BI web.

I want to create a layout as below. Any suggestions on how I could get the side bar, without having any click action associated with it.
