Retrieve an object that has been powered off

I made a chain out of paint strokes I wanted to make physical, so I attached each link to a sculpt. After I linked everything with joints, I tunneled into the grouped paint and sculpt and turned the power off on the sculpt.

Now when I go back into the group, the sculpt is just gone (but the joint still works fine). I can't find it anywhere to bring up its tweak menu and turn it back on (say if I wanted to reposition something).

I've encountered a similar problem when I completely cover a sculpt with a negative shape. It has the same behavior of no longer being something you can hold the imp over in the screen and tunnel in or bring up a tweak menu.

Does anyone know how to find objects that have been disappeared like this?

    In the view menu there is a ‘show invisible’ on the far left

    Although "Show Invisible" probably wouldn't show you parts of a sculpt that has been cut out. There may be no way of getting that sculpt back, if the whole thing has been cut out. Though at the time, you can always undo to remove that cut out.

    yea the thing with negative spaces will hopefully be better in the full release. right now you can only grab and move a negative stamp, when you hover your imp directly over the spot where positive and negative space touch. can't just grab it, need to fiddle around closely on the edge of the visible part.

    Yeah, some function to switch between viewing negative and positive edits would be mighty handy.
