Offset Closed Polylines INwards/OUTwards: CP_INOUTOFFSET – CADPower Command

Summary

The CP_INOUTOFFSET command simplifies the process of offsetting multiple closed polylines either inwards or outwards with a single operation. This command is especially useful for adjusting boundaries, creating buffers, or modifying closed shapes efficiently.

CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Offset closed polylines INwards/OUTwards

Key features include:

• Batch Offset: Offset multiple closed polylines simultaneously, saving time and effort.
• Flexible Direction Control: Choose to offset the polylines either inwards or outwards, depending on your design needs.
• Customizable Distance: Specify the horizontal offset distance, allowing precise control over the extent of the offset.

Workflow:

Command: CP_INOUTOFFSET
Select Objects: (select polylines to offset)
Offset direction: [ Inwards/Outwards ] <Outwards>: (Type Inwards or Outwards)
Horizontal offset distance : <1.0000>: (Enter horizontal distance to offset)

1. Select Objects: Choose the closed polylines you want to offset.
2. Offset Direction: Specify the direction—Inwards or Outwards.
3. Horizontal Offset Distance: Enter the desired distance for the offset.

The CP_INOUTOFFSET command enhances productivity by allowing rapid and accurate adjustments to closed polylines, making it an essential tool for efficient design modifications.
