What if it doesnt show up on right even if it is enabled in 4.2

Hello. Can you give us a little more context? What doesn’t show up? Also a timestamp on the video will be helpful so we can see what Porter is saying. I’m guessing it’s about an addon, the one that he uses the check the mesh?

[Martin Bergwerf]

Yeah, some more context would be great Jenny @Distempered …

But if you mean that you can’t see the 3D Print Addon in the N-Panel, that could be, because you don’t have an Active Mesh Object. Select your Mesh and it should be there.

Yes,  i guess that really would have helped if i gave yall a little more context, i meant when i pressed N, that it did not show up on the right. even tho it shows up that it is installed. so i switched to Blender 4.3 and it shows up fine. Thanks for the quick reply’s

Sometimes we don’t realize we have to switch it in one of those thingies, there should be an extra one with the name of the addon, try and see if that’s it:

Should work in 4.2 as well, Jerry (sorry for the misspelling above, my eyes are getting worse…):

I’m having trouble selecting the eyes and getting them to appear inverted to make a proper manifold. It’s almost like that part was skipped.

Hello Samantha. Can you give us a time stamp in the video? So we can see what you’re referring to. It’s a short video, but just in case. Also can you give a little more context, what steps are you taking? Selections in Blender are usually very straightforward, they don’t tend to cause trouble.

Hi Samantha @Starksc27 ,

If you are talking about our beloved Suzanne,

the Eyes are part of the Suzanne Object. To Select the eyes, you need to go into Edit Mode and Select them there. For instance: P > Separate > By Loose Parts:

Then switch back to Object Mode.

There are other ways, like hover over an Eye (in Edit Mode) and press L to Select the Eye and everything that’s connected to it…

[Samantha Sanders]

Hi yes, that’s what I’m talking about. When I do the “By Loose Parts” it only shows one eye loose. It won’t let me do anything with the other.

Hi Samantha @Starksc27 ,

Separating in Blender puts the ‘new’ Objects in Object Mode and leaves one (in your case Suzanne’s left eye) in Edit Mode.

That’s why I said: “Then switch back to Object Mode.”

You can see this also in the Outliner:
