Function SketchOffset2( _
   ByVal Offset As System.Double, _
   ByVal BothDirections As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal Chain As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal CapEnds As System.Integer, _
   ByVal MakeConstruction As System.Integer, _
   ByVal AddDimensions As System.Boolean _
) As System.Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ISketchManager
Dim Offset As System.Double
Dim BothDirections As System.Boolean
Dim Chain As System.Boolean
Dim CapEnds As System.Integer
Dim MakeConstruction As System.Integer
Dim AddDimensions As System.Boolean
Dim value As System.Boolean
 
value = instance.SketchOffset2(Offset, BothDirections, Chain, CapEnds, MakeConstruction, AddDimensions)
C# 
System.bool SketchOffset2( 
   System.double Offset,
   System.bool BothDirections,
   System.bool Chain,
   System.int CapEnds,
   System.int MakeConstruction,
   System.bool AddDimensions
)
C++/CLI 
System.bool SketchOffset2( 
&   System.double Offset,
&   System.bool BothDirections,
&   System.bool Chain,
&   System.int CapEnds,
&   System.int MakeConstruction,
&   System.bool AddDimensions
)

Parameters

Offset
Offset value; negative value offsets the sketch entities in the opposite direction
BothDirections
True to offset the sketch entities in both directions, false to offset the sketch entities in one direction
Chain

True to offset the chain of sketch entities, false to offset only the selected sketch entities (see Remarks)

CapEnds
Cap the ends as defined by swSkOffsetCapEndType_e
MakeConstruction
Convert original and offset sketch entities to construction sketch entities as defined by swSkOffsetMakeConstructionType_e
AddDimensions

True to include the offset distance in the sketch, false to not

Return Value

True if the selected sketch entities are offset, false if not

Example

Remarks

Specifying true for Chain offsets the selected sketch entities and any other sketch entities that belong to the same contour or chain (contiguous geometric entities like edges).
