Whenever I go to paint some trees or flowers on a NURBS surface, it paints them upside down so the flower grows on the opposite side of what im clicking on. How can i fix this?

at first you can see the normals by : display-nurbs components-normals (in shaded).

to reverse them : edit nurbs-reverse surface direction (with the option swap)

>Display>NurbsComponents>Normals(you must shade the primitive)
then
>edit nurbs>reverse Surface direction

and polys you do

display>polygon Component> normals
then
editpolygon>normals>reverse
