Signature

Path path.offset(float distance)

Example

```js ({ Point, points, Path, paths, part }) => {

points.A = new Point(45, 60) points.B = new Point(10, 30) points.BCp2 = new Point(40, 20) points.C = new Point(90, 30) points.CCp1 = new Point(50, -30)

paths.example = new Path() .move(points.A) .line(points.B) .curve(points.BCp2, points.CCp1, points.C) .line(points.A) .close()

paths.offset = paths.example .offset(-10) .attr("class", "interfacing")

paths.lineOffset = new Path() .move(points.A) .line(points.B) .offset(-5) .attr("class", "various")

paths.curveOffset = new Path() .move(points.B) .curve(points.BCp2, points.CCp1, points.C) .offset(-5) .attr("class", "canvas")

return part }
