Inversed Normals

Occasionally the part and the image will map with an inversed normal. This means the section of the image appears backward on the facet. To remedy this Select the 2D part and apply a -1 scale along the X or Y axis depending upon how the reversal appears. If the Scale options are not in the Edit Bar use the UV Mapping Options to tun them on. Do not flip the 2D part via rotation. This will only flip as the reveres association will remain.
