Concentric rectangles

HI i need help creating concentric shapes . like the rectangular street sign  having 2 boarders . thanks

  • Hello seyennoik; Do you have a pic. of what you are looking for that you can post here. If you are looking for something like the attached it is done with the Contour Tool.

    • yes exactly that street sign. i used the contour tool, had challenge increasing the thickness red inner boarder while maintaining the thickness of the outer black band
      • select the outermost and set your desired inward contour. Break them apart (cntrl+k) then select the inner one and make your next contour
        • Hello seyuenoik; You would draw the sign blank the size you want. Then do a Contour of as many lines as it takes to get where you want to be and Brake the Contour apart and delete what you don't want. I had to delete two lines of the Contour to get it the way it was in the above drawing. What is the sign blank size and what are the size of the offset from the edges? You can send me a email and i'll send you the file to look at.
