Some edges cannot move?!

Hello, I’m trying to project a low-rez head model on a high-rez one and the inside part of the lips is a nightmare to get right. Right now I’m stuck because I cannot move the outer edges of the inside lips.

If I use the move (or move topological) brushes nothing happens. It’s like the edges are stuck in place. Or if they can move then it’s in the wrong direction (towards the inside instead of the outside, or vice-versa). And there is no mask or polygroup visibility involved at all…

Another weird thing is that when I use the move brush, the area selected moves a certain distance but then stops moving and I have to re-click on the area to move it again. Never seen this behavior before.

Edit: It’s really strange; it’s like my move brush has a certain leeway and allows me to slide the surface, within a certain “shell thickness” but refuses to go beyond…

Could someone please help me? Thanks…

Well I finally found out what was happening. Turns out if the scale of a model is too big for Zbrush it will start behaving very strangely (cf. my previous post).

So I scaled down everything to well within the floor grid and now everything’s fine…
