And all that were posted before.
I have issues with poly offsets since.... since ever.
I wondered that I might be the sole user that has these problems.
Probably, 123 views and non even tried.
With the little knowledge of scripting I first tried to follow the coding.
You may find my endeavour in: Bad poly offset.txt
The investigated path should return a correct distance!!
Then I tried to catch it in the act.
That was a little harder because core functions are involved.
But then a breakthrough.
As pro user the getDistance function is not handled by:
OffsetThrough.prototype.getDistance(...)
Instead it is handled by:
OffsetThroughPro.prototype.getDistance(...)
And for what my opinion is worth:
line 85-92 exclude any endings of line segments.
Furthermore, beside limiting inner segments,
line 83 will limit the outer ones too.
Code: Select all
77 OffsetThroughPro.prototype.getDistance = function(pos, shape) {
78 if (isPolylineShape(shape)) {
79 //return shape.getDistanceTo(pos, true);
80 var minDist = undefined;
81 for (var i=0; i<shape.countSegments(); i++) {
82 var seg = shape.getSegmentAt(i);
83 var d = seg.getDistanceTo(pos, true);
84 var p = seg.getClosestPointOnShape(pos, true);
85 if (isLineShape(seg)) {
86 if (p.equalsFuzzy(seg.getEndPoint())) {
87 continue;
88 }
89 if (p.equalsFuzzy(seg.getStartPoint())) {
90 continue;
91 }
92 }
93 if (isNumber(d) && (isNull(minDist) || d<minDist)) {
94 minDist = d;
95 }
96 }
97 return minDist;
98 }
99 else {
100 return shape.getDistanceTo(pos, false);
101 }
102 };
Non-paying, non-pro user will get a proper offset.
