Normals automatically calculated?

In my experience they are.
I wrote a couple of tools that need to generate geometry on the fly (you
probably know what I'm talking about) and never had to take care of normals.

Tell the truth I wish it was easier to take care of them when needed :D

Hi All,

Just wanted to double check. When I create a mesh (through a plugin)
the normals are automatically calculated based on the geometry? i.e. I
don't need to (or even have a way to without a usernormal property)
set them by hand.

Cheers,

Alan.
