Offset - Imprecision

Pedro Marcos Flores Refosco's Photo Pedro Marcos Flores Refosco 11 Apr 2022

Greetings,

I'm pretty new on this subject. But when I started using Nanocad's Offset function, I noticed that when I type the distance, it presents me with a certain inaccuracy. I'm probably doing something wrong. I would like some guidance help. Remembering that I installed the software as instructed and started using it then, I didn't configure it in any way after installation.

Thank you for your time.

Pedro

Hello.
Have you tried "help" section?
You can find it in top right corner of platform, looks like question mark, or type HELP in command line.
Then go to:
nanoCAD Platform - Editing Objects - Commands to edit and replicate objects - Offset.
Also it available here: https://online-help....&rhtocid=_9_3_3
It's quite good explanation, but if it won't help, please, write here, and we'll try to find what's happening.

There are also good video guides (it's not about "offset" question, but maybe it'll be useful) via youtube channel: https://www.youtube....CADcom/featured

It did help. I was actually not following the right order input information. I don't understand why I was finding very close (but imprecise) results. But anyways, I followed the exact order of the inputs I need to give to the command (as shown here: https://www.youtube....CADcom/featured) and now it works properly. Thank you!
