OFFSETEDGE
Creates a closed polyline or spline object that is offset at a specified distance
from the edges of a selected planar face on a 3D solid or surface.
Summary
You can offset the edges of a planar face on a 3D solid or surface. The result
is a closed polyline or spline that is located on the same plane as the selected
face or surface, and can be inside or outside the original edges.
TIP You can use the resulting object with PRESSPULL (page 838) or EXTRUDE (page
427) to create new solids.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Corner = current
Select face: Select a planar face on a 3D solid or surface
Specify through point or [Distance/Corner] <current>: Specify a
point, or enter an option
Through Point
Creates an offset object that passes through the specified point. This point is
always projected line-of-sight onto the plane of the selected face.
Distance
Creates an offset object at a specified distance from the edges of the selected
face.
Specify distance: <current> Enter the offset distance, or press Enter to accept
the current distance.
