4R6 Won't recognize hidden mesh to delete

Hi,
I’m trying to delete part of my mesh, I hide it and hit “del hidden” but get an error message saying that none of my mesh is hidden. The mesh also shows up after in a different position?

I’ve tried to look for other ways to delete, or troubleshoot this problem but can’t get rid of this thing.

Hide the part your arrow is pointing at with left click and drag with shift+ctrl+alt keys held down, Then use delete hidden.

Thanks for your reply! I tried it but the same thing happened - the mesh appears to be hidden, I click “delete hidden” but zbrush tells me it can’t because none of my mesh is hidden.

And the tiny bit of mesh then appears in a different place.

To avoid confusion you could click the eyeball for the subtool you’re working with, that should hide the others. Then see if it’s still there. Enabling PolyFrame is also helpful as is transparency at times. Under some conditions enabling dots display can help you locate things like this(dots show instead of wire or faces when you try to rotate viewport etc.) hope that helps.

Something else you can try.

@zber2 thank you so much, that fixed up everything so I could finally delete it no problem.

Thanks to everyone for their help!

The fix zber posted is excellent for other similar issues, such as if ZRemesher fails. Fix the mesh and ZRemesh again and all should go well.
