I am trying to flip the normals of an object using geometry nodes.

I know that the flip faces node is supposed to do something like that but it does not seem to create the effect I want.

If anybody knows a way to flip an objects normals using nodes that would be much appreciated

    $\begingroup$ unfortunately you didn't say what "effect" you want. Flip faces does indeed flip faces. like so: [1]: i.sstatic.net/G2ctd.gif so please improve your question and tell us 1) what you want to achieve 2) what you have tried 3) what doesn't work $\endgroup$

You need to activate Backface Culling in the outline material:
