"Lcam would offset to the inside but not the outside"
STEVE,
I have run across that jusr recently and in fact just now with your posted DXF.
So here are a few tricks:
1. Create an inside offset with 1/8" cutter
Then i unenabled the original outline
Then i created an outside of the first offset with a 1/4" tool
which gives the same ( i think, would need to check the radius's ) as if you offset the original with a 1/8" tool
2.For some reason, sometimes you just can't do an offset because of the radius. So for this one i just did an offset
using a .2" dia and got an outside offset. Then i deleted that offset.
Then i used the 1/8" tool and it worked just fine.
3. Sometimes when things just don't seem to work out. Close and re-open LC.
Nope, i have no explaination why the above works.
No this is not in the manual.
Because until your file and another two i helped recently, i never had the problem.
