Dear team
I suppose the operation I am after is difficult to explain: I try to reduce the "wall thickness" of an object of mine in height by 1.5 mm while decreasing the width and thickness by 1 mm. I do not try to just change the length of my object from like 50 mm to 48.5 mm, I try to reduce every surface by that amount. So if I were to hollow my object with a wall thinkness of 1.5 mm in height and 1 mm in width and thickness, then fill that object again and attain that infill as a seperate object, then that is the object I am after. Operations that come to mind don't seem to work:
"Offset" (which additionally does not seem to work how I think it should with negative values, at -3 mm there should be holes in my object which is not the case) only works on all dimensions at the same time.
Filling after a "Hollow" command while trying to attain that infill as a separate object (if even possible) at the very least also fails because the Hollow command does not allow me to pick a dimension and changes all dimensions in the same way.
So is there a way to achieve this? If not, what is the best way to reduce by 1 mm flat in all dimensions?
