polySetToFaceNormal [-setUserNormal]
polySetToFaceNormal is undoable, NOT queryable, and
NOT editable.
This command takes selected polygonal vertices or vertex-faces and
changes their normals. If the option userNormal is used, the
new normal values will be the face normals arround the
vertices/vertex-faces. Otherwise the new normal values will be
default values according to the internal calculation.
