Create Overhangs by Offsetting Edges

The first step when creating a drawing is to add overhangs. This is accomplished by offsetting measured edges to where they will eventually be cut.

Offsetting an Edge

  1. Click Offset
  2. Select Edge as the sub action if it is not already selected.
  3. Enter the amount of the overhang for the Offset > OK
  4. Toggle on/off 
    1. Keep Original if the original edge should remain after the offset (recommended On).
    2. Revise Style if the offset edge should be drawn with a Finished edge style.
  5. Click the edge to offset.
  6. Click the direction to offset the edge.
