How to get Faces Aligned with a Direction and Located at the "Top" of the Body
This example is how to get faces aligned with a direction and also located on the "top" of the body in that direction. You can see the type of faces in the image, aligned with the Z Direction. Notice one of the 3 blocks does not have a face selected because it it not oriented in line with the Z axis. This is useful often…
