Extrude surface up to surface

Hello all,

So in solidworks there is an "up to" extrusion options where you can take a surface and extrude it up to another surface. I can't seem to find this component in grasshopper?

I am trying to extrude this triangle into the exterior of the sphere, so it is 'domed" in shape...

THANKS

Advanced Surface Tools is great. You could also hack it a bit using native components by projecting curves and rebuilding the surface.
Best,

Justin

Dope!!! I will try this out tomorrow.. Seems perfect. It's strange that this isn't a native component in GH given that its such a common command in most solid modelers. Out of curiosity, are plugin's ever co-opted into GH?
