Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. First locate the Java API's polygon offsetting support and determine whether the requested operation is available; done means providing a documented example for a clockwise double[][] polygon inflated by 2 mm, or clearly documenting the limitation.

Description

Hello,

I am wondering if there is any example on how to perform polygon offsetting.

I have a double[][] array with the polygon vertices points in clockwise order and I want to inflate it by 2mm.
Is there any example code on how to perform the offseting ?

Thank you in advance
