FIG. 13B illustrates that in step 9, a user may define and/or adjust an offset, a width measured from a proximal end 1326 of the active model 1316 to the distal end 1328, for an osteotomy of the proximal end 1326. Such a step can be done by the system 1000 with a default offset and then subsequently adjusted by a user 1002. Alternatively, step 9 can be done solely by the user 1002 with reference to a set of work instructions 1040 and/or a prescription 1100 to make the offset match the request of a surgeon. Once step 9 is completed, a cut plane for an osteotomy is defined for the active model 1316 of the first metatarsal 208.
