Quick question
« on: August 13, 2008, 04:52:49 am »

Hey I'm brand new to anim8or and am loving it. But I have one problem I can't seem to find as answer to..

How do I tell which was the surface normal is? I have a feeling its something to do with the blue and yellow when I select a surface. Does yellow me its at a 90 degree angle on that side?

Thanks alot
- Sam

Yellow is the front of the face, blue is the back.
You might want to read a bit more, but that should answer your question.

In case you wanted to know, always have the front facing side facing the camera or things maybe turn out 'funny'.
