To produce an Offset Surface in the Main Menu select Operations - > Transformation - > Offset Surface

This operation translates each point of an Object (a set of Objects) along a local normal by a given Offset distance (signed number, negative value meaning inner offset).
Offset operation is applicable to faces, shells and solids.
Advanced options.

Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of the use of Transformation Operations.
