ReshapeFixHeal Mesh Normals

The Heal Mesh Normals command enables you to correct the direction and the orientation of the normals to the mesh vertices on the basis of the mesh topology. A correct operation of this procedure implies that the mesh should not have non-manifold and singular faces, so a previous Mesh Healing operation is highly recommended.

1. Select the mesh whose normals you would like to heal.
   
   To reset the mesh selection, right-click on Mesh in the selection list, choose the Reset option in the context menu and then select the mesh again.
   
   
2. Select the origin point that will be used to calculate the correct normals.
   
   
3. In the Heal Mesh Normals selection list, use the check-boxes to:
   
   
   
   

   Fix Normals	Fix the normals using the seed vertex chosen before as a basis for the calculation.
   Show Normals	Shows the normals of the mesh.

   
   
4. Click the OK button to confirm the operation, or the Cancel button to abort.
