 | 
						|
Offset a plane by a distance along its normal.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For example, if you offset the 'XZ' plane by 10, the new plane will be parallel to the 'XZ' plane and 10 units away from it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
offsetPlane(
 | 
						|
  plane: PlaneData,
 | 
						|
  offset: number,
 | 
						|
): Plane
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Arguments
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
 | 
						|
|----------|------|-------------|----------|
 | 
						|
| `plane` | [`PlaneData`](/docs/kcl/types/PlaneData) | The plane (e.g. 'XY') which this new plane is created from. | Yes |
 | 
						|
| `offset` | [`number`](/docs/kcl/types/number) | Distance from the standard plane this new plane will be created at. | Yes |
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Returns
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[`Plane`](/docs/kcl/types/Plane)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Examples
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
// Loft a square and a circle on the `XY` plane using offset.
 | 
						|
squareSketch = startSketchOn(XY)
 | 
						|
  |> startProfileAt([-100, 200], %)
 | 
						|
  |> line(end = [200, 0])
 | 
						|
  |> line(end = [0, -200])
 | 
						|
  |> line(end = [-200, 0])
 | 
						|
  |> line(endAbsolute = [profileStartX(%), profileStartY(%)])
 | 
						|
  |> close()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
circleSketch = startSketchOn(offsetPlane(XY, offset = 150))
 | 
						|
  |> circle(center = [0, 100], radius = 50)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
loft([squareSketch, circleSketch])
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 |

 | 
						|

						|
  |> startProfileAt([-100, 200], %)
 | 
						|
  |> line(end = [200, 0])
 | 
						|
  |> line(end = [0, -200])

						|
  |> line(end = [-200, 0])

						|
  |> close()
 | 
						|

```
