Here in Blender, I extrude a mesh and then added loop cuts.
Is it possible to do both at the same time in GH?
My goal here is to subdivide the side, not the top/bottom.
If not possible, is there any simple method that can add loop cuts to the side?
Here is the real mesh I like to add loop cuts while thickening.
I like to add multiple loop cuts.
This GH file only contains one mesh component.gh (10.4 KB)
Mesh+ might have a mesh loft component. Not sure about it since I do not use the plugin anymore.
Weaverbird has a mesh from lines component which can be used to build the walls using the boundaries of a series of offset meshes.

Thank you very much! @martinsiegrist It’s indeed a good method. I searched Mesh+ Weaverbird and other plugins, but none of them can provide a simple solution.

I made a simple User Object to solve this. Offset Loop Cut.
It requires Anemone and Pufferfish.
Why it is needed?
It is for controlling the roundness of the edge while converting mesh to Brep.
Not a good solution at all, but before the WIP SubD edge crease, this kind of solution is possibly inevitable.
**But Not Good **
In order to control the crease(roundness), the supporting edges need to be added.
My method above has two drawbacks,
first, it adds unnecessary loops to get close to the edges needed to be creased. I guess I can solve this by tweaking things inside Anemone.
Second. It adds supporting edges only on one side of the edges that need to be creased. As shown below, the other side also needs to be added, namely the inset of the top face in this case. I like to ask if there is a way to do that in GH.
