Well let me start off saying that i’m a noob at zbrush…i’m currently working on a new project and when i went to open and create a new zsphere and hit the “A” key to check the adaptive skin the zsphere only showed me half of the object. any thoughts or ideas to help fix the issued would be most helpful 
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.
thank you so much works now
