Show bad vertices

To help find why a mesh is broken or invalid you can use the Show bad vertices checkbox. It will draw a circle around every invalid vertex on the mesh. The circle is color coded to show how it is incorrect.

Color
Red	Incorrect bind count. Vertex bound to more than 4 bones
Green	Incorrect normals. Normal is zero or infinite, this happens when all 3 points of a triangle are on the same location
Magenta	Incorrect tangets or UV mapping. This happens if all vertices in one triangle have the same UV coord
White	All the above. Usually happens with free floating vertices
