Would it be possible to offset a surface to specific cover distance? Similar to scaling down a surface at the distance of the specific cover, but where would the basepoint be; at the centroid?

Raise/lower Surface would only be good to offset a surface on the Z-axis, right? What if I want to have the same cover distance "offset" in the X-axis through to the Y-axis?

I'm not sure I understand. Could you perhaps draw a picture?
