MFVec3f vector MFVec3f inputOutput set of unit-length normal vectors, corresponding to indexed polygons or vertices.
SFBool normalize SFBool inputOutput FALSE specifies whether to normalize the normal vectors. TRUE normalizes the normals, FALSE doesn't normalize.
MFString logFeature MFString inputOutput state, child, parent, route, eventIn, eventOut controls the logging of changes, state: log state changes (e.g. live), child: log child add/remove, parent: log parent add/remove, route: log route add/remove; eventIn: log receiving of events, eventOut: log sending of events: guiView, runtime system should create node-view, guiEdit: runtime system should create node-editeverything: log everything
