Originally designed to transform 2-node lines in rectangles centered on them and of a given width.
Expanded to do the same with polylines but with nuances: corners at the bends are flat, rounded or sharp. And, surprise! With the round corners you get MI buffers but with flat extremities, flush with end points. Then adapted to "continuous segment sets" where each segment carries its one value and is adjacent to the next one. And you get a way to map the variations of a variable along a path. If you want to play with it, I recommend you read the documentation (the pdf file can be accessed directly from the application menu) to understand all the choices that are available. And I wish you make it suffer to make it stronger (if I can correct the errors you will find) and that you will invent ways to use it that may help reveal possible improvements/expansions.
