Analyzing quality

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

The Quality Closed ribbon group contains the following tools:

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