Hello, what I would like to know is a way to flip all normals in one direction regardless of current normal direction. I get a lot of surface models that are a mess and this would help me alot. Also I have a friend and co-worker that uses Cimatron and Mastercam, they dont need to mess around with the normals.
In addition someone said that normals were from old technology and that they no purpose and served no use. I think that perhaps they are wrong about that. Afterall Studio Max uses them and so does MDTV6 so how can they be old technolgy, Arent they made automatically when ever you surface model??
I would certainly be very grateful for any insight to any of the above, much thanks.
Best regards,
