ARCH OFFSET
2D curve cad like offset
This is the geometry nodes modifier for blender 4.3.2
Features:
- Single sided offset / Two sided offset
1side offset left, 2sided offset right
- Nested offset
(from left to right) 1side nested offset, 2sided nested offset, 2sided nested offset + “delete nested 2s out” enabled
- Closed offset
Used for cases the curve is complicated (curves like spirals) where the curve normals hits the “backface” of another curve segment.
complicated curves examples (from left to right) 1s offset, 2s offset, closed offset:
- Limited offset
this is the offset using always the limit offset distance per curve or nested ID
- Make offset solid
this node group is just the example showing how to use the node group output parameters:
performance examples in miliseconds (150cm offset 15duplicates 66ms left, 5cm offset 500duplicates 72ms right):
performance examples in miliseconds (curve resolution 2, 214ms top, curve resolution 6, 1255ms bottom) in case the curve resolution is too high the computation might fail due to many steps where the limits are very close to zero:
