## Definition

### Remarks

[ContactFilter2D.useOutsideNormalAngle](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/contactfilter2d/useoutsidenormalangle.md) uses the range between [\_minNormalAngle](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/contactfilter2d/minnormalangle.md) and [\_maxNormalAngle](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/contactfilter2d/maxnormalangle.md) to filter the normal angle. Set `useOutsideNormalAngle` to true to only return normal angle outside that range. Set `useOutsideNormalAngle` to false to only return normal angle within that range. It is false by default.
