Workflow question...

So I’m working on my objects and I managed them on the subtool menu. At some point I want to load a tool from the light box. Click on some tool and my objects are gone from the scene and also they are gone from the subtool menu. When I try to reconstruct my subtool as it was sometimes I can’t find all the tools I was previously working with, why is that? I then have to initialize and open my project again but there’s got to be a easier way to work around that. Why can’t I load a new tool and still maintain my subtool menu the way I had it?

Your tools are all still there. You seem confused about how Zbrush handles different tools. The link Doug posted should help you understand what is actually happening.

Thanks. I just realized that the top layer on subtools is the tumbnail for all tools you inserted or appended for that group. Silly.
