PlanarSrf doesn't keep my points as vertices :( - Grasshopper2024-03-29T10:53:45Zhttps://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/planarsrf-doesn-t-keep-my-points-as-vertices?feed=yes&xn_auth=noHi Taz,

<p>Hi Taz,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for responding as you guessed the example I posted is more trivial than my problem. In fact I'm trying to solve this problem generally as part of my workflow.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The problem seems to be that grasshopper automatically simplifies the edge curves when angles are within tolerances. However I explicitly don't want this simplification to happen!</p>
<p></p>
<p>If you have any other suggestions I would very much appreciate it!</p>

<p>So Sweep2Rail doesn't work. Creating a ruled surface may be helpful, but doesn't seem better than lofting. Alternatively if you know your points will be on your surface you can simply evaluate their UV locations.</p>

<p>I suspect the example you've presented is more trivial then your specific circumstances, but the best thing I could think of was lofting sets of parallel lines. That will give you isocurves at your paired point locations.</p>

<p>Thanks for the response Joseph, but what I am after is a surface, not a mesh.</p>
<p></p>
<p>To confuse things I will be meshing the surface later on but it is the surface I require at this stage.</p>
