Curve direction

Hi,

I have a recurrent problem with curve directions and offset. For example when intersecting a brep with a number of planes, the curves end up having different directions and offset is of course a mess. I did try flipping the curve direction with the first curve as reference, but didn't work.

Is there any way to unify the curves direction?

Thanks in advance.

A stupid solution could be doing both offset, positive and negative.

Then, if you want an external offset, select only the one longest of the 2.

But this method double the time of calculations, and the risk of failed offset, messing up everything....

You could use the boolean output also to flip the curves....
