Looking around for some CAD
Hi!
I'm quite new in Open Cascade world and I'm trying to use the offset algorithms for a cnc app. BRepOffsetAPI_MakeOffsetShape in mode PerformByJoin. I've seen that the offset direction of single face offset is always the normal direction. So, when the face is planar and vertical the normal direction is horizontal. Now I'm working with tilted faces and i would like to keep the offset direction horizontal. There is a way?
In the attached png you can see how Z coordinate is going down with the offset from 12.00 to 11.993 and 11.988. I would like to have al Zs in 12.00
Regards. Thank you!the
