[page:Line] →

[name]

Renders [page:ArrowHelper arrows] to visualize an object's [page:Face3 face] normals. Requires that the object's geometry be an instance of [page:Geometry] (does not work with [page:BufferGeometry]), and that face normals have been specified on all [page:Face3 faces] or calculated with [page:Geometry.computeFaceNormals computeFaceNormals].

Example

geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry( 10, 10, 10, 2, 2, 2 ); material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xff0000 } ); object = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, material ); edges = new THREE.FaceNormalsHelper( object, 2, 0x00ff00, 1 ); scene.add( object ); scene.add( edges ); [example:webgl_helpers Example using various helpers]

Constructor

[name]( [page:Object3D object], [page:Number size], [page:Color color], [page:Number linewidth] )

object -- object for which to render face normals
size -- size (length) of the arrows
color -- color of the arrows
linewidth -- width of the arrow lines

Properties

[property:Object3D object]

The attached object

Methods

[method:null update]()

Updates the face normal preview based on movement of the object.
