Hi Matthias,

I wrote a tool to interactively edit user normals. It does not provide a way to
average normals based on an angle but it allows you to average the selected
normals around the vertices of one mesh, or between vertices of separate meshes
based on their distance in global space. It also has effects to set selected
normals to a polygon or vertex normal and to help manage which normals are
stored in the user normal cluster properties, etc.

You can find it on XSI Net :
- go to http://www.softimage.com/xsinet/
- enter "XSI_UserNormalEditing" in the search box and click go

I hope to keep improving this tool in the future, if you have some suggestions
you'd like to see added please feel free to contact me directly with your
requests.

Cheers,
Alain

Can somebody point me towards the polygon/vertex normal editing tools?
Setting normals to face, averaging normals based on an angle, rotating
a normal by hand etc. I can't find any of that in the manuals or
menus.
