class bpy.types.NormalEditModifier(Modifier)#

Modifier affecting/generating custom normals

invert_vertex_group#

Invert vertex group influence

Type:

boolean, default False

mix_factor#

How much of generated normals to mix with existing ones

Type:

float in [0, 1], default 1.0

mix_limit#

Maximum angle between old and new normals

Type:

float in [0, 3.14159], default 3.14159

mix_mode#

How to mix generated normals with existing ones

  • COPY Copy – Copy new normals (overwrite existing).

  • ADD Add – Copy sum of new and old normals.

  • SUB Subtract – Copy new normals minus old normals.

  • MUL Multiply – Copy product of old and new normals (not cross product).

Type:

enum in [‘COPY’, ‘ADD’, ‘SUB’, ‘MUL’], default ‘COPY’

mode#

How to affect (generate) normals

  • RADIAL Radial – From an ellipsoid (shape defined by the boundbox’s dimensions, target is optional).

  • DIRECTIONAL Directional – Normals ‘track’ (point to) the target object.

Type:

enum in [‘RADIAL’, ‘DIRECTIONAL’], default ‘RADIAL’

no_polynors_fix#

Do not flip polygons when their normals are not consistent with their newly computed custom vertex normals

Type:

boolean, default False

offset#

Offset from object’s center

Type:

mathutils.Vector of 3 items in [-inf, inf], default (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

target#

Target object used to affect normals

Type:

Object

use_direction_parallel#

Use same direction for all normals, from origin to target’s center (Directional mode only)

Type:

boolean, default True

vertex_group#

Vertex group name for selecting/weighting the affected areas

Type:

string, default “”, (never None)
