    I have this object and want to add an offset (20mm) all the way around all edges not just the outside edges seen here:

    https://s22.postimg.org/79g3jux35/Screen_Shot_2016_11_23_at_11_17_14_AM.png

    Not sure why it won't allow an offset on the inside edges.. Am I missing something?

    The Sketchup is attached FlowerofLife.skp

    Any help is much appreciated!

    Cheers

      I made faces inside, selected all and than did offset in both directions with this tool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caKEEQop5mk%26amp;feature=youtu.be
      Erase inner edges.

          Multiface offset by Remus should make the trick! πŸ˜‰

          Make the normal Offset first (not made here: it's that you have made πŸ˜„

          Then fill the holes as you want (draw a big square on the same plane than your form)
          Make intersection as you want
          Select only the "holes" filled (with the trick following)
          Call the plug
          Erase the "holes filled" (no made here: selection with the trick following! πŸ˜‰
          et voilΓ ! β˜€

          A little trick

          Works fine! πŸ˜„

              No, I never even thought about Multiple Offsets. I "reinvented the wheel" yet again just for this special case.
