For some reason Edit>Path> offset path does nothing.  I made a simple rectangle just to test on a clean shape , even try with the quick actions button, but no menu pops up. 

Am I doing something wrong?

I restarted Illustrator and is working now - the strange thing was that everything else was working, but not this. 

Must have been some NVidia Overlay settings or something.

Hello, I have the same issue. When I go to Path, offset path, then I get no menu to for making changes, like the offset of joins etc. What can I do? I have restarted Illustrator, but still no menu to make changes in offset path. Please forgive me my mistakes. I'm coming from the Netherlands.

Did you try to reset the preferences?

En uit Nederland komen is geen excuus, daar kom ik ook vandaan 🙂

Hallo,

Het is ook geen excuses dat ik uit Nederland kom, maar ik
verontschuldig mij voor mijn slecht Engels.

Ik heb het geprobeerd om te preferences te wijzigen maar ik krijg niet
dezelfde opties te zien. Toen heb ik alles opnieuw nog eens
geïnstalleerd en daarna nog een geprobeerd maar nog steeds hetzelfde
probleem en bij de preferences krijg ik ook hetzelfde te zien.

Hoe kan ik de omtreklijn dan krijgen, via PAD - Omtreklijn, dan lukt het
mij niet. Is er ook een andere optie?

Graag hoor ik van je.

Vriendelijke groet,
Dianne Schottert

Sorry Dianne, ik maakte een (flauw) grapje.

Maar de opties die jij als voorbeeld gaf zitten niet bij Object > Pad > Omtreklijn, dat maakt contouren van een lijn.

De dialoog die jij wil zien zit bij Object > Pad > Pad verschuiven...

Vriendelijke groet,

Ton

Hallo Ton,

No problem ☺️
Oké, dat ga ik morgen dan even proberen. Ik kom hieraan door een filmpje op YouTube die ik stap voor stap volgde. Dacht dat ik de juiste optie had gekozen ☺️

Maar ik laat je het weten.


Vriendelijke groet,
Dianne Schottert
