Quality

The tools in the Quality ribbon group allow you to detect any anomalies or discontinuities in a surface that shading cannot show.

The Quality ribbon group contains the following tools:

Normal Use the Normal tool to display the normal direction ("inside" or "outside") of faces or surfaces.
Grid Use the Grid tool to display the curves that define any face or surface in your design.
Curvature Use the Curvature tool to display a fringe graph of the curvature along curves or edges.
Dihedral Use the Dihedral tool to display a fringe graph of the angle between two faces along the selected edges.
Draft Use the Draft tool to display a fringe graph of the selected surfaces, where each value is an angle measurement.
Stripes Use the Stripes tool to reflect a virtual 3D cube "room" on the selected faces.
Deviation Use the Deviation tool to show the distance from a source, or reference, body to a selected body or Mesh body.
