Extrude direction of Why does extrude_face() direction not always match face.normal?

[skyrungit]

Hi,
I’ve been testing the extrude_face() function and noticed something confusing about the extrusion direction.
• For some faces, when I extrude with direction=“+”, the extrusion goes along the face.normal (as expected).
• But for other faces, the extrusion goes opposite to the face.normal.

For example:
• A face with face.normal = UnitVector3D([0, 1, 0]) extrudes downward (−Y) when I call extrude_face(distance=10, direction=“+”).
• Meanwhile, another face with a different orientation extrudes upward (+normal direction) under the same call.

This inconsistency makes it difficult to reliably predict extrusion direction just by checking face.normal.

Hi @skyrungit - sorry for the late response!

Could you provide an example code-snippet that reproduces this behavior? Just to determine whether it is an expected behavior or if it is an actual bug inside the services.

Thanks in advance!
