Noob Question - Why are my zspheres turning into Domes?

[Jamie_Guillemette]

Noob question but it completely baffling me now.
I have been working with zspheres to make base models and everything is working fine.

Today something new started. Every time i make a zsphere and then apply adaptive skin the resulting skin is flat in the z axis.

I have tried resetting all zbrush settings but the problem persists. Please guide me. How do i get it back to a state where my zspheres turn in round shapes when adaptive skin is applied instead of domes?

Hi @Jamie_Guillemette! You just need to add another Zsphere to form a chain. Per the documentation:

The root (first) ZSphere has no geometry of its own. It is only a placeholder. You cannot delete the root ZSphere. You must attach a ZSphere at each end of the “root” sphere to “cap off” the geometry.

There are already a variety of spherical primitives if you just want a simple sphere.
