In response to http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtop ... 23&t=43426One last update. Addressed problem of possible conflict with other plugins and fixed a bug when using a delta values list with multiple faces. Select one or more faces. Run the plugin and select one of three offset methods. Constant: Input number of offsets, distance between offsets, direction to offset, either inside, outside, or both, and whether the selected face(s) and all created faces are to be deleted, select No to keep faces. Formula: Enter number of offsets, distance to first offset, direction to offset, delete faces Yes or No, select operator + or *, and value to add or multiply by. List: Select direction of offsets, delete faces Yes or No, a list of offsets separated by commas, choose type of offset either absolute or a delta value to be added to the last offset value. If the offsets are a repeated sequence, end the list with *X, where X = the number of repetitions for the offset sequence entered. In one test case, the offsets were placed opposite of the direction setting. Why this occurred is still a mystery. The simple solution is to undo, rerun and choose the opposite direction. The latest version is available from the PluginStore... Download

Maybe it will cool also to keep the surfaces ? (first and news) Because we can't make surface with the new curves even welded! Here with the plug "create face" surfaces.jpg

Retracing any segment of the closed curve with the Line Tool should create a face.

Major update posted today. Offsets can be created by three methods
Constant: Input number of offsets, distance between offsets, direction to offset, either inside, outside, or both, and whether the selected face(s) and all created faces are to be deleted, select No to keep faces.
Formula: Enter number of offsets, distance to first offset, direction to offset, delete faces Yes or No, select operator + or *, and value to add or multiply by.
List: Select direction of offsets, delete faces Yes or No, a list of offsets seperated by commas, choose type of offset either absolute or a delta value to be added to the last offset value. If the offsets are a repeated sequence, end the list with *X, where X = the number of repititions for the offset sequence entered.

curious nothing append on V7 and V6! All menu appear but nothing is done! Does this normal ? Work like a charm in V8 !  (aespecially the * x with a list ! As the "exotic Push Pull" seems have a problem maybe will be a good thing to input it inside this plug during the calculate ? Or See my new request

@Simon Curious you write 20,30,40,50*3, that must be 20,30,40,50,*3  Edit : in fact that gives the same result!

blajov, sorry about that but I only have SU8 Free at my disposal so there is no way for me to determine why that is the case.

Sam
The multiple offset does not work on my computer,none of the options, constant, formula or list. I have Sketchup, V8, M1. Here is the error message. Hope this helps.

Thanks in advance for looking at this problem and the plugin.

Thank you very much for the update, Sam. It does exactly what I needed. nmhai: That's not an issue with the plugin. You'd get that with the native offset tool as well. The error is in the setup. You can either fix by deleting the unwanted edges or you start with the inner most profile and offset outward. You might also have a look at TIG's Smart Offset.
