Cannot detach an item.

Hello.

I was recently trying to create some hair via prim creation/editing, and I don't seem to be able to detach my attempt from my head. The problem is that even though I put my normal hair back on, my attempt at it still shows through...

I went ahead and resized it so it's small enough to not be seen, but I would like to find a way to detach it.

I've gone through the Edit>Detach menu and detached it from the skull, but that doesn't work. I've gone to my Objects folder, right clicked and then clicked Take Off Items, but that also doesn't work. I also can right click on my character, pulling up the pie menu, wherein I click Take Off>Detach>Detach All and that as well does not work.

I've also tried going into my saved outfits and right clicking, then clicking "Replace Outfit" which usually does just that, but it won't delete/remove the problem.

And of course, I can't delete it from my inventory either, as the option is grayed out. I was hoping someone might have an idea as to what the problem could be, and if there's a way to fix it.

Thank you! :)

Try reloging. Sometimes it is jsut your client not updating right so you get phantom atachments.

Not sure how you created it; however if it attached to the scalp portion of your avi - you can't take it off - you will have to put a "bald cap" on - as you can't scalp yourself :eek:

If not that - the other suggestions should do ya. :)

Actually, yeah, it was simply a matter of logging off and logging back in. For whatever reason it definitely just got stuck on there and wouldn't go away no matter what I did, so thankfully it was all just a big lie.

But thanks for the suggestions and all :)
