paneling on curve surface

hello guys, I need some help on using paneling tool in a project.

I've been given a surface (as shown in 1.png) which is a curve surface, some part of it are sloped and some part of it are "cone shaped", I already had the pattern defined somewhere in the flat part of the surface(as shown in 2.png), but I want to extend this pattern for the entire surface

I think this can be done by flowalongsrf in Rhino, but I wonder if I can do the same in Grasshopper with paneling tool?

please let me know if you have any idea

thanks a lot

      What is your tolerance? Do panels need to be fixed (with the dimensions you indicated in the attached picture)?

      While you can probably maintain similar panels of the flat or singly curved parts of the surface, you will likely have to use variant panels for the doubly curved area. If variation is not a problem to you, please attach the Rhino file, and I can probably help further.
