I was putting a prim on a wall in the house I own on the property I own. It's very thin and I accidentally stuck it "inside the thick wall, where it now can't be seen or selected. Is there a way to retrieve it?
Thanks

Assuming that the prim you buried in your wall is smaller than the wall, you can select it by surrounding it. To do this, go to the TOOLS menu and make sure that SELECT BY SURROUNDING has an X next to it. Then, click and edit your wall. Then, holding down the mouse button, drag your mouse around the wall. Once you've completely surrounded the area covered by the buried prim, it should select and the wall should deselect. (If the wall doesn't deselect, you can deselect it by holding down the SHIFT key while clicking it.) Then hit your DELETE key and voila, nasty buried pain-in-the-patootie prim gone.
Hope this helps.

Just move the wall, find and move the hidden prim. Then select the wall again and from the menu at the top of the screen select 'edit' then 'undo' and the wall will return to its original position.
