Hybrid parallel

[dexus]

Nice test @PGia, thanks!

For some reason I didnt consider closed polylines in the _checkOffset function, so I added an extra check there.

Should work as expected now:

 

Not sure about the short corner. The lines are so narrow the centerline is pushed back out of the point.

Seems to be logical to me but it does feel intuitive.

 

Narrow indents don't get much love from the centerline. So "inlets" don't have enough influence on the shape of the line.

What would the expected result be? Below makes sense since there is not enough space to go into the indent.

Or are you maybe something like this where the line splits and goes into the hole:

I did some more tests today and found that when the end segments were parallel, they didn't get added to the line.

So I added support for that. This one was easy because the _cornerOffset function already checks for parallel segments and I just had to add a flag to inform the offset loop. 

 

 

And I found another example which it has a hard time on with concentric arcs, attached below.

But that will be for another day since I have no more time for that this week.
