Solid offset component suggestion

hi @Michael_Pryor I think it would be nice to have a solid offset in pufferfish, I’ve made a python version, see attached. So far I couldn’t find an equivalent in any other plugin. The tolerance is an important one especially for sharp offsets:

The Pufferfish one is for surfaces not breps (it can do brep faces as surfaces as the description suggests) because the offset you are using exists only in Rhino 6 Rhinocommon but Pufferfish supports Rhino 5. The offset like you are using exists in Parakeet I believe which has the same options as Rhino.

ah, ok, I understand. Yes I was using that Rhino common method.
