It is recommended that the Solidify modifier reorder the faces.

This is the problem I encountered when I was making a column. I thought it was bug.

It was later found that after the Solidify modifier, the Bevel direction is controlled by the face order, and the Bevel modifier has no option for the face order.

Can confirm the [unexpected] behavior.

Havent seen this reported before, maybe @HooglyBoogly has an idea?

Looked into this a bit, currently the direction of the bevel profile seems to depend on edge/face order.

This can be tested by applying the spin modifier, then running sort edges/faces with random order.

I think this feature needs to be improved.

Although there is nothing wrong with individual modifiers.

However, in order to better combine modifiers, we should pay attention to whether the output of each modifier or geometric node is neat or not, so as to make people happy to create.

The choice of which orientation to use for the profile is not trivial-- right now it's supposed to use a combination of Z-up, and then propagating that around a branch of beveled edges.

That's not necessarily the only way to do it, but currently I don't have a good idea for how to fix this.

Eventually I wanted to add an edge attribute that would reverse the profile.

Why would someone change my title?
I suggest adding face renumber to the Solidify modifier.
In this way, the problem of chamfering direction can be solved.

Or add sort nodes with attribute masks to geometric nodes, which is just my idea, but I won't do this by writing code.
