Dear sir,

 ![Screenshot 2022-08-25 173843](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/slicer/original/3X/5/a/5ab262e04bcc361428be8a16dc47a7ae8c053582.png)

I have two segment tables.

1. segment table 1 is connected to the default segment selector drop-down, which is “Segmentation” (This configuration will never going to change)
2. segment table 2 is connected to the newly created segmentation node, which is “Segmentation\_1” (This configuration will never going to change)

Is there any possible way I can perform the paint operation in table 2 's segment?

Thank you in advance.
