If the lowest priority group is already projected back behind the plane (dotted line) or is within the plane (solid line) then trace through the other three groups beginning with the highest priority group first as above(1,2,3 trace).
If on the other hand, the lowest priority group is projected in front of the plane (solid wedge) then trace through the other three groups beginning with the highest priority group first as above(1,2,3 trace). Reverse the trace so that if the trace was clockwise indicating "R" configuration make it "S" configured. If the trace was counter clockwise indicating "S" then reverse it and make it clockwise making it "R" configured. |
