2d to 3d Buffer - s-leger/archipack GitHub Wiki

Buffer is an approximate representation of all points within a given distance of the input curve(s). Use this tool to build eg wall from axis / border, road from axis and so on.

Buffer options:

• Bezier resolution : input bezier curves approximation.
• Distance : when positive distance has an effect of dilation, when negative erosion.
• Side : avaliable side for buffer are : both, left, right.
• Resolution : determines the number of segments used to approximate a quarter circle around a point.
• Cap: available styles of caps are : round, flat, and square.
• Join: available styles of joins between offset segments are : round, mitre, and bevel.
• Mitre limit : The ratio of the distance from the corner to the end of the mitred offset corner is the miter ratio. Corners with a ratio which exceed the limit will be beveled.

Note:

While this tool does work with closed splines, endpoints may suffer from square cap artefact.
