Hi,

I saved my work recently, and I reopened and I see this. The mask is hidden and I have the bone show which showcases the knee area.

I’m trying to segment each bone, i.e femur tibia and patella… however, before I saved the work I could see the bone 3d view but after I opened my save I see this which I cannot get rid of.

p.s I saved my work and reopened it within a 10min time frame.

You probably have another segmentation or model that occludes the view. You can hide or delete them in Data module.

When you load a saved scene, only open the .mrml file it will load all the other files. If you load the .mrml file and data files, too, then you will end up with having multiple copies of the data files (loaded once by the .mrml file and loaded again because you selected the data files).
