hi

just started using Modo and i´ve got a problem. as you can see on the pic, some polys are invisible in the render view.
i need to flip them to see it, but thats a lot of work, so my question:
is there any button/script that can flip the polys "outside", so i dont have to select and flip every poly by hand?

hope you can help me.

you could try the meshcleanup script on vertexmonkey, or just use a double sided material

The way I usually do this is by flipping all the polys, and then selecting all the ones I see, and then flipping those, and the flipping them all back again. Doesn't usually take that long.
