Level tracing only works in non-rotated slices (slice view plane is parallel with a volume plane). Click the warning button to rotate the volume to view plane. If you want to segment in oblique plane then you can resample the volume. See this segmentation recipe for more details: [Overview | 3D Slicer segmentation recipes](https://lassoan.github.io/SlicerSegmentationRecipes/ObliqueSliceSegmentation/)
