Description:
|
This API reverses the sense of a face; i.e., this API makes the face material void (flips the normal). Also, alters the senses of the coedges to avoid changing the shape of the face.
|
|
|
Errors:
|
Pointer to face is
NULL or not to a
FACE.
|
|
|
Limitations:
|
The API does not check to see if the face belongs to a solid, nor does it compensate for side effects caused by reversal of the face. The user must ensure that the API is called only for independent faces.
