Is it possible to have faces always/automatically set to face?

Is it possible to have faces always/automatically set to face? The work I do doesn't require or work if the normals average which really looks bad on my end. I keep having to click "Set to Face" button I have in shelf. I haven't been able top find a way to set this and suspect there isn't. But good to ask since I want to simplify/streamline my workflow a bit more.

 

Thanks in advance for comment/advice etc.

Hi!

 

If only the look is a problem then use in Viewport Menu: Shading -> Flat Shade All.

 

Edit: If you need hard edges at the model, you may check the settings of your modeling tools, some create a soften edge at certain values (like Extrude Face -> Options: Smoothing Angle). You can save these settings and don't need to change them every time.

Not quite what I wanted but will do so long as a remember set faces later. Should be ok.

 

Thanks. Cheers,.
