Inventor change default normal

Hello,
When placing a transitional constraint to a surface (the part has no volume) the default normal is inconveniently on the wrong side of the face. Is there an easy way to change the default normal for future constraints? (92 objects have this constraint applied to themselves and the surface).
Regards,
Istvan.

I can't see any way to change this, and I can see how it would be quite tedious if you have many such constraints to place. Select Other allows you to select the other normal of a surface, but that's a lot of extra clicks to do the job.
