Overview

HPOxygen is designed to work with multiple models simultaneously in a transparent and intuitive manner. The working models are listed on the Plans & Scans panel.

...

The Scan & Build Model panel also contains the list of working models with the same basic functionality.  Note that it contains just the scans, and not the recut solutions. The columns specific to solutions are also hidden.

Main Scan

One of the scans is considered the Main Scan. Its name in the list is emphasized with bold font and (only when selected together with another model) green background.

Info
A sample is a standard model to refine your stone against. It can be loaded from a *.dmc file on the Scan & Build panel. Once loaded, it remains in your list of models under the name Sample.
