# Unwind Paths

<div class="page-metadata-wrapper" id="bkmrk-"></div><div class="page view" id="bkmrk-an-extension-to-wrap"><article>An extension to wrap off paths to receive horizontal lines or extruded bands. Can be used for paper crafting, analysis and other works. You can also just use it to colorize path segments.

Tips:

<div class="wiki-content">- You can use [Move Path Node](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/books/fablab-chemnitz/page/move-path-node) to change the starting nodes of paths.
- You can use [Offset Paths](https://wiki.stadtfabrikanten.org/books/fablab-chemnitz/page/offset-paths) to offset the root paths
- You can use [Joinery - Laschen, Ösen, Nasen, Stege in 2D-Modelle einarbeiten](https://old.stadtfabrikanten.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=94175414) to add tabs, flaps or other connectors

</div>Note: Unwind Paths is similar to [https://inkscape.org/~Shoshanaz/%E2%98%85horizontal-lines-effect-hlines](https://inkscape.org/~Shoshanaz/%E2%98%85horizontal-lines-effect-hlines), but it is more andvanced as it supports bezier curves and allows to create extruded bands, style config, etc.
