Offset - different seam in opposite directions

hello everyone.
i have a doubt about how the offset works. which i have noticed in both grasshopper and Rhino.
If I have a curve and I perform the offset in the 2 directions, in one of the two resulting curves the start-end points change. This creates a problem for subsequent developments - for example to create surfaces between pairs of curves you have to use a shift.
Can anyone explain why and how to make the resulting curves maintain the same seam as the original curve?
Thank you

Can you run the SystemInfo command and paste the results here? I fixed a similar issue for 8.7 here. Your Grasshopper definition also doesn’t have the curves internalized.

Your curve is not internalized and there is no Offset Curve component.

Hello mr. Joseph.

Yes, i did the offset in Rhino but anyway i noticed you get the same results bot in Rhino and gh. I’ll do in 2 minutes.

Your file is useless :bangbang:

here’s the file! sorry, I forgot to save after internalising… :sweat_smile:

I opened the file you sent
it gave me this result

So no problem in R7 and R8… :roll_eyes:

ok fine! same script, different result…so it must be an issue of rhino or gh… i have no this same result :thinking:
lets see what @Joshua_Kennedy say.

He already told you it’s been fixed. You need to update. I’m using Rhino 8 SR7 2024-4-10 (Rhino 8, 8.7.24101.10001).

Ah, that’s OK, I didn’t realise. I will update, thank you both @Joshua_Kennedy.
Have a good one.
