Stupid question time. What's a recommended tool for checking (and correcting) winding? It's hard to tell if everything you lay down while making parts is CW or CCW and it's even harder if you're trying to review something. Is L3P what everyone uses? (...)

Steve, If I recall correctly, this is not a problem, because the Tracker says that a file has "[x] subfile(s) isn't/aren't certified" if it has *any* subfiles (including primitives) that are *not* fully, totally, 100% certified...
