      I am not sure if there is already a plugin for this, but if not, it sure would be nice. Now, I know I am the only one with high poly models, and after running several of the complex plugins, I got faces all over the place-- some default white and some default grey scattered all over the model. What I am hoping for is a "reset normals" feature that trolls the model and makes all the faces white, without selecting each face or unselecting all of those on the other side of the model that you didn't mean to select. In other words, make all of the face normals have the same "polarity". Does this make sense?

        There are a couple of plugins which "aim" to do this (although you can never make anything sure with reversed faces). I don't use them as I tend to keep everything "clean" on the fly and need not reverse many faces at a time generally but I remember...

        But believe me, you aren't the only person with high poly models 😉

          Select one face (white) of your volume
          Then right click / Orient Faces
          That make the trick 😉
