To Create an Offset of a Planar Curve or Radial-Path Planar Curve
1. In the Model Tree, select the Style feature that contains the planar curve or radial path planar curve, and then right-click and choose
Edit Definition. The
Style tab opens.
2. Click
Style >
Curve >
Offset Curve. The
Offset Curve tab opens.
3. Click the
collector, and select one or more planar curves or radial-path planar curves.
| The surface or the plane on which the curve lies is the reference to specify the initial direction of the offset. |
4. To set the direction to offset the curve, click the
collector, and then select a plane.
5. To set the distance to offset the curve, type a value in the Offset box, or drag the handle on the curve.
| Typing a negative value in the Offset box reverses the direction of the offset. |
6. To export the offset value for modification outside of Style, select the Offset check box.
7. To offset the curve perpendicular to the reference plane, select the Normal check box.
