Backface culling in Anatomist when viewing a mesh

Post by HughTG »

When using Anatomist 1.30, and I display a mesh with clipping planes active, the software appears to have backface culling active. Is there a user option / ini file flag to turn backface culling on or off?

Hi Hugh,

You can turn off backface culling in the tools window (the same as the one you used to turn on plane clipping), but what is not enabled is two-side lighting, so the inside face of a mesh appears black (which is not very useful I admit). I will think about enabling it too...

OK it's done. It will be in the next release, and in the next update (if one day we take time to release an update...)
