How to assign a shortcut for the "reverse face" tool?

[numerobis]

hi,

i had assigned a shortcut for the "reverse face" command in the right click menu. i reinstalled sketchup and now i can't find the command in the shortcut anymore...
where can i define a shortcut for this tool?

thanks!

Select a face prior to going into the shortcut settings then it will show up in the list.

When activated, just "sweep through" the model and it will reverse all back faces it touches (even inside groups/components).

Looks very useful... I don't know how i could miss this one

I did not know this! Excellent tip!

This is true for all SketchUp tools that are context-sensitive: they won't show up in the shortcuts editor unless the appropriate context is activated, e.g. by selecting an edge, face, group, or component.
