LIFT FLIP BACKFACE NORMALS UNFOLD  

 
  Tailors     NORMALS
 
 
NORMALS displays the (average) normal vectors of 3D faces and open polygon meshes.
 
Block "NORMALS" (arrow) is inserted on layer "NORMALS".
Insertion points are the centers of the faces / meshes.
The color depends on the angle from the current UCS XY plane (positive = green; negative = red).
The length of an arrow is determined by the square root of the area of the face / mesh.
 

The drawing shows the normal vectors of several 3D faces (left)
and the average normal vector of a polygon mesh (right).
 
Note that the block inserts are not associative (which means that they are not updated when the faces / meshes are modified).
 
LISP syntax:
(normalsProcess selectionSet)
selectionSet - name of a selection set as returned by (ssget)
