"offset“ not applicable to circle....

Anonymous · ‎2021-03-08

Hello, I want to offset a circle (ora curve), but the reshape-offset or control-offset not affect it, very weird I cannot apply this basic function any shape....
Please advice, thanks

I assume that because it is a single arc, it is treated as an actual arc.
Arcs and circles do not have this offset edge option in the pet palette.
You can however use the offset tool.

See this post from just a little while ago.

Select the edge of the arc, not the node?
