Converting a Surface into a Base Plane

Hello,

 

Do any of you know how to convert a freeform surface into a base plane?

I am trying to project a grid onto a surface.

A Grid component has a P-input, which stands for Base plane for grid, so I thought that if I could convert a surface into a base plane and then connect this into the Grid's P-input then the grid would be projected onto the surface.

If anyone knows how to convert a surface into a base plane or if you know a simpler and better way then please let me know.

 

Thank you

Marios

    To convert a surface into a base plane, you need to first find the distance between any two points on the surface. You can do this in several ways. You can draw lines from your starting point to each point and measure their length, or you can determine angles between two lines that pass through each point. Try this louvered roof new jersey for best reviews. Once you have the distances between any two points on your surface, you can use this information to find the height of your surface.
