    Normals Property
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the IList of normals.
    Syntax
    public IList<Coordinate3D> Normals {get; set;}
    Public Property Normals As IList(Of Coordinate3D)
    Remarks
    The normals of a 3D object are used for lighting. They define the direction that each face will reflect light. They are usually perpendicular to the patch but can also be defined in other directions.

    The getter returns the IList of normals by reference. A change to the returned list changes the patch normals list. The setter copies the input to an internal container. If the input is null, then the list of normals for this patch is set to null.
