You can either:

  • manually enter the desired offset amount (this can also be adjusted in set increments using the up and down arrows) 

  • use the calculator to help set the offset amount. The calculator is useful if you want to offset the surface by a certain volume of imported or exported dirt. 

    • Formular (Click '?' button to see)
      Left over volume = (Cut/Fill ratio * Volumn of cut) + Volume of fill.
      Result = (Import + Left over volume) / Selected area

Negative import values are considered exports.


Press 'Apply' (shown as the offset design icon) after parameters are entered.
