In the order version like HyperMesh 14.0,you can do this through contact manager-surface-edit-adjust normal to do that,but in the newer version like HyperMesh 2020,the contact manager was replaced by contact browser,and I didnt find anything about normal in it.How to adjust it in the newer version

Thanks

    in this new approach, you need to select the contact surf (set segment) and edit the elements on it, in the browser, and use the 'adjust contact direction' and using the 'reverse' option. Or adjust only a few of them giving a reference shell.
