hi michael

I think my question at the beginning was missleading, cause the basic problem is that the offset function produces a lot of points. So it's probably better to try to have lesser points at the beginning instead reduce them later. Many times I use the offset function I want to tweak the result. In this case it would be ideal if the control point of the offset-curve have a correlation to the source-curve. I don't no if this is possible in any case the offset function is used but it seams that the ofset curve an be generated by modifying the location of the control points.

Here's an example:
