I can reproduce it, but I'm not sure if this is a bug.

@Vyach what would you expect exactly?

@ideasman42 should this work differently?

@JacquesLucke
I expect even distance between edges. the same way as solidify do it, for example.
even edge offset literally: edge offset from edge, not vertex from vertex as it is now.
Not a bug but wrong behaviour, as I think.

Seems to be a creative cover for 'offset edge loops slide' aka 'offset edge slide' aka [shift-ctrl + r], an implementation that has always worked this way.

Campbell Barton changed title from ~~Offset edge loop cut do not make even spaces~~ to Make "offset edge loop" slide evenly

This isn't a bug, although this could be supported.

Note that making the offset "even" can cause spikes, so we'd want this to be an option - as it is for shrink/fatten "offset even" option.

Offset "even" doesn't help with the OP-selected geometry:

These are two different kinds of even.

The existing option moves a fixed distance from one side of the edge loop.
The other option (which this report is asking for) would increase the offset based on the angle between the edges.

Yeah, one of the most needed functionality considering edge slide, alongside with [edge flow ]] and [ https:*blenderartists.org/uploads/default/optimized/4X/4/d/6/4d674de26d2b54d085b23ce32504149f837058b3_2_690x416.gif | curvature support .
