* [[App_Link|App Link]] objects linked to the appropriate object types and [[App_Part|App Part]] containers with the appropriate visible objects inside can also be used as source objects. {{Version|0.20}}
By executing this command, FreeCAD flips the normals of all faces of the shape/solid.
* To see the effect of the command change the {{PropertyView|Lighting}} property of the reversed shape to {{Value|On side}} and if required change {{MenuCommand|Edit → Preferences... → Display → 3D View → Rendering → Backlight color}}.


==Properties==
You can verify this by
# Making all other objects but the reversed shape invisible.
# Selecting the reversed shape.
# Change {{PropertyView|Lighting}} from "Two side" to "One side".
# The shape will turn black, meaning that you are now looking at the back of the faces.
