We've been through this magnetic viewing film discussion before, see in this thread post #273 and a few pages prior to that. I still say your take is incorrect. Mr Ardizzone has given bad information which is contradictory to many other references which can be found on the subject. As this:
e-Magnets UK - Supplier of Neodymium Rare Earth Magnets
And Wikipedia.
The viewing film only shows the effects of flux which impinges on it. Not below it. Not next to it. So it may indicate the poles below it but not necessarily.
I can't think of a method to prove it to you. That's why I mention Gauss's Law and the accepted definition of magnetic poles.

I never said anything about gates. The magnetic field impinges a surface. Again study Gauss. Think of the magnetic line of force in the flux field as a street. That street passes across the border between two countries. If there is no traffic on that street, there is no flow, but the street still crosses the border.
The arrow heads on diagrams of magnetic fields and lines of force do not represent direction of flow or travel. They assign polarity. Just as N and S. Like I was telling Al, we could just as well use B and C. Two N poles react exactly as two S poles. That street example above: Put a one-way sign on that street. If it never has any traffic, the sign is meaningless. In fact, the border is meaningless. Kind of like magnetic poles. It is the field that is of importance, not labels we stick on concepts.
Here is how magnetic fields and lines are used. There is no need for direction arrows and North & South.
