  3. Due to splitting operation, Spaceclaim set the normals for the two surfaces (of single surface body) in different directions. When I invert the normal for one surface, it inverts the normal for the other surface. How can I fix it so the normals are in the same direction?

      Regarding issue about Surface Normal, to get rid of that; – You can first select the problematic surface body and then right click on it to Detach All. – This will create separate surface bodies for those single surfaces. – Now you can go to Measure/Normal and then select the required surface, right click on it to Reverse Face Normal. – Once it is done, you can go to Repair//Stitch to convert it back to single surface body.
