What is a Channel-Shaped Part

This kind of part is an extrusion that is not a closed tube shape. It looks like what you see in this image.

Reversed Point Labels

When you reverse the XYZ rows, VTube will also reverse the point labels. With the point labels reversed, it is a good idea to look at the END LABELS rather than the POINT LABELS to determine which end to measure first. See the effect in the image on the right. The END A label is at point 9 in this part after a reverse of the XYZ data.

Reset the Reversed Point Labels

You can reset the point labels from being reversed with the XYZ reverse feature. Right click on the XYZ grid and the click on Reset Point Labels.
