New issue 286 by
shappysf...@gmail.com: Zero-length vertex normals on
closed shell volumes
http://code.google.com/p/alembic/issues/detail?id=286
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Export a plane and then a sphere from Maya
2. Test the vertex normals (we imported into Houdini and Katana and then
shaded the model displaying the vertex normals to see which geo is "bad")
3. The closed surfaces have bad vertext normals
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Valid vertex normals.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
CentOS 5.4, Maya 2012.5sp1, Alembic 1.0.5
Please provide any additional information below.
Here's the export options that were used:
AbcExport options={'jobArg': u'-root sphere -frameRange 1 1 -attr
identifier -attr sharedSourceFile -attr userSourceFile -attr uvs -attr vn
-uvWrite -stripNamespaces -file /tmp/sphere.abc', 'verbose': True}
