Some hard surfaces have an in/out parameter which you can use to reverse parts of the surface, but for a complete reversal click on color space and choose dx or gl. See below for the effect of the in out paramater and the GL/DX selection:

Thank you.

Isn't there a way to automatically setup the project for example with OpenGL, and therefore.. if I am adding a normal map, it will use by defeault (auto) the projction with OpenGL?

The reason I am asking.

When I switch the project settings between OpenGL and DirectX... there is absolutely no visible change in the active viewport.
