In this video, check out a tool so awesome that I used it to replace one of SketchUp's native tools!
S4u Offset contains a number of features that are better than the SketchUp offset tool, including:
- Offset individual or non-connected edges
- Offset in two directions at once
- Multiple offsets
- Random offsets
- Offset to Group!
- and more!
This SketchUp S4u tutorial will teach you how to offset objects using S4u offset and why it's better than the base offset tool!
