Creation method

There are two options for creating Offset Curve node.

  • The first way to create Offset Curve node using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need, or words associated with this node.
    • offset
  • The second way is to select Offset Curve node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Toolset > Offset Curve

Steps

  • Create Offset Curve node.
  • Connect the curve for offsetting to the first port.
  • Connect the boolean toggle to offset curve one side or two to the second port.
  • Connect the offset type to the third port.
  • Connect the offset distance to the fourth port.

After creating a node, connect a curve for offsetting to a first port, the boolean toggle to offset curve one side or two to the second port, and the offset type to the third port. The offset type can be only "Arc", "Tangent" or " Intersection". It is the default "Arc". Connect the offset distance to the fourth port. On the output port, you will get the resulting offset curve.
