&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[Category:Object Modifiers]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{#indexentry:inverse, object modifier}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{#indexentry:object modifier, inverse}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;When using [[Reference:Constructive Solid Geometry|:CSG|CSG]] it is often useful to invert an object so that it will be&lt;br /&gt;
inside-out. The appearance of the object is not changed, just the way that&lt;br /&gt;
POV-Ray perceives it. When the &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;inverse&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; keyword is used the &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
inside&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; of the shape is flipped to become the &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;outside&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; and vice&lt;br /&gt;
versa. For example:&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
object { MyObject inverse }&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The inside/outside distinction is also important when attaching&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;[[Reference:Interior|:interior|interior]]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to an object especially if&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;[[Reference:Atmospheric Media|:media|media]]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is also used. Atmospheric media &lt;br /&gt;
and fog also do not work as expected if your camera is inside an object. &lt;br /&gt;
Using &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;inverse&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is useful to correct that problem.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
