-\n This operation allows changing orientation of a set of neighboring
-faces. The desired orientation is defined by a vector. Since the direction
-of face normals in the set can be even opposite, it is necessary to
-specify a control face whose normal will be compared with the vector. This
-face can be either specified explicitly or found by proximity to
-a given point.
+\n This operation allows fixing the orientation of a set of faces in
+the following ways:
+<ul>
+<li>The required orientation of a set of neighboring faces can be defined
+ by a vector giving the direction of a normal to a certain face. <br>
+ Since the direction of face normals in the set can be even opposite,
+ it is necessary to specify a \a control face, the normal to which
+ will be compared with the vector. This face can be either:
+ <ul>
+ <li>found by proximity to a given point, or</li>
+ <li>specified explicitly.</li>
+ </ul>
+</li>
+<li>Alternatively, the faces can be oriented relatively to the adjacent volumes.</li>
+</ul>
-Orientation of a face is changed by reverting the order of its nodes.

+<li>In the "Reorient faces" dialog box
-The following dialog box will appear:
+<ul>
+<li>Select the \b Object (mesh, sub-mesh or group)

+ Viewer.</li>
+<li>To reorient by direction of the face normal:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Specify the coordinates of the \b Point by which the control face
+ will be found. You can specify the \b Point by picking a
+ node in the 3D Viewer or selecting a vertex in the Object
+ Browser.</li>
+ <li>Set up the \b Direction vector to be compared with the normal of the
+ control face. There are following options: <ul>
+ <li>adjust vector components directly;</li>
+ <li>select a vertex in the Object Browser or a node in the 3D

-<li>Specify the way of selection of the control face: by point or
- explicitly.</li>
-<li>Select the \b Object (mesh, sub-mesh or a group of faces) containing faces to reorient in the Object Browser or in the 3D Viewer.</li>
-<li>Specify the coordinates of the \b Point by which the control face
- will be found or of the control \b Face itself. You can easy specify the \b
- Point by either picking a node in the 3D Viewer or selecting a vertex
- in the Object Browser. It is possible to pick the \b Face by mouse in
- the 3D Viewer or enter its ID.</li>
-<li>Set up the \b Direction vector to be compared with the normal of the

- If you pick two nodes (holding Shift button) then the \b Direction vector
- will go from the first to the second node.</li>

+<li>In the third mode, the faces can be reoriented according to volumes:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Select an object (mesh, sub-mesh or group) containing
+ reference \b Volumes, in the Object Browser or in the 3D

+ <li>Specify whether face normals should point outside or inside
+ the reference volumes using <b>Face normal outside volume</b>
