Symmetry not working when painting or sculpting

[Dion Burgoyne]

Most likely because the object isn't symmetrical, easiest way to test is to go to a front view and MMB loop select the right side of the object, if the left side doesn't select it isn't symmetrical

Yeah I had the same problems, just try to delete mirror side and then make mirror again to make it symmetrical.

Thank you for the input, the suggestion about mirroring work out good.

I'm not sure why Modo does this though: loose symmetry for no reason it seems :/

I often run into this problem and it is a huge letdown. The only thing i dislike about the program. I am turning to zbrush to paint / sculpt now because of this :(
