Michael,

>I see - but how was it that you noticed in Powermill that some surfaces were reversed in the first place, does it show some kind of indicator or coloring of the object side in there? If so then you could use it to do the direction tuning.<

They show up in a different colour. You can flip then in Powermill, easily done, but It should be done beforehand. Just for the sake of customer satisfaction :)

Customer are fickle, they like that sort of attention to detail...

Hi bigseb, sorry I'm still not quite getting it...

If you can both see and flip them in Powermill, can't you then do the flipping in Powermill and save the finished and flipped result back out from Powermill and then send that version with the surfaces oriented as you prefer to your customers?

Why is that method not working to solve your problem right now?

It does work, Michael, its also an extra step. I could shave quite a bit of time by doing it all in one software. And time is money, after all.

At the moment if the flipped result is important to you, you'll need to do that extra step and that will allow you to get the result that you need right now.

In the future I do expect to add in a "show direction" mechanism that will show backfaces in a different color and let you solve this directly in MoI, but it is not in there currently.
