Rhino 8 wish - offset

Hi Guys, @Joshua_Kennedy ,
I want to tell you that the new Offset is really much better than the previous but there’s still a little annoyance.
As you can see in the image if I offset a shape the extensions are only linear (left) instead of being smooth/natural (right)
In the drawing I’m expecting the offset to close the circle and not to extend the tangency.

thanks to taking this in consideration,
best.

That one seems hard, to me at least… I don’t see how the right answer could be found there automatically and reliably.

Hi Pascal, yes it could be hard to get a closed offset, but what if it check for Arcs and extend only them with the same radius ?

Yeah - Josh is way smarter than me, he’ll manage something…

I opened an issue for this here. I think it’s reasonable but we’ll have to think about it a bit.
