Description
Flips the normals of all faces of the selected object.
Usage
- Select shape.
- Go to the menu Part → Reverse shapes.
- A reversed shape is created as a new separate object.
Notes
By executing this command, FreeCAD flips the normals of all faces of the shape/solid.
You can verify this by
- Making all other objects but the reversed shape invisible.
- Selecting the reversed shape.
- Change ViewLighting from "Two side" to "One side".
- The shape will turn black, meaning that you are now looking at the back of the faces.
