# [name]

Renders [page:ArrowHelper arrows] to visualize an object's vertex normal vectors. Requires that normals have been specified in a [page:BufferAttribute custom attribute] or have been calculated using [page:Geometry.computeVertexNormals computeVertexNormals].

## Example

`geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry( 10, 10, 10, 2, 2, 2 ); material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xff0000 } ); object = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, material ); edges = new THREE.VertexNormalsHelper( object, 2, 0x00ff00, 1 ); scene.add( object ); scene.add( edges );` [example:webgl_helpers Example using various helpers]

## Constructor

### [name]( [page:Object3D object], [page:Number size], [page:Color color], [page:Number linewidth] )

object -- object for which to render vertex normals size -- size (length) of the arrows color -- color of the arrows linewidth -- width of the arrow lines

## Properties

### [property:Object3D object]

The attached object

## Methods

### [method:null update]()

Updates the vertex normal preview based on movement of the object.
