    Hi all,

    I offset polylines in a program. For some polylines, it gives this error and skips these. The reason that I have found is that the angle of offset point from a point on the line. It works for certain angles and not for some.

    Any one know how to trap the error when it happens?
    I do not understand if ERRNO could help in this issue.

    Based on this, I would like to take some corrective actions.

    Thanks for any suggestions.

  2. Perhaps you could use this wrapped in vl-catch-all-apply ?

    (vla-offset <vla-object> <distance>)

    Jason,

    Good idea.

    I'll make some trials and get back.

    Thanks,
