Where has the Initialize Under Tools Gone

I was following along with the tutorial in the ZClassroom called “Creating a Sword”. To create the handle the instructor uses the Initialize under Tools to size and divide a Cylinder3d object. When I look at my list under Tools it has different options including Geometry HD, Polygroups, Displacement and it’s missing Alpha Bump and Initialize. The ZClassroom Instructor is using 3.1. I am using 3.1. So why are the Tool options different. When I go to ZBRUSH HELP even it shows Tools>Initialize. Any idea what’s going on here? Am I using a different default workspace layout?

I think you must have a polymesh version of the Cylinder3D selected. (If you pressed the Make Polymesh 3D button the tool is automatically replaced.) Press F1 to bring up the tool popup and select the Cylinder3D from the Startup row of 3D tools to see if that makes any difference.

thank you marcus…that was it!!!
