    • offset
  • The second way is to select an Offset Solid node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Solid > Offset Solid

Steps#

  • Create an Offset Solid node.
  • Connect the solid for offsetting to the first port.
  • Connect the boolean toggle to offset solid 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 solid for offsetting to a first port, the boolean toggle to offset solid 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 solid.
