Full Version: Offset difficult shapes

Good day.
Is there a way to offset difficult shapes?
file attached.

I need to have the same shape but 1mm offset to the inside.
scaling would not work since it needs to go inside the shape itself.

Thank you!

Hi Matadem, you can use the Construct > Offset command to do that.



Select the curve

Run Construct > Offset.

Set mode to "By Distance".

Put in 1mm in the Distance field.

Pick point to the side you want to offset.

Looks like this:

Got it...I tried it for some reason it would not go.

But it works and I can move forward.

Thank you!
