Hi Veronica,

 

I would suggest something like this:

Use the Evaluate Surface tool to receive the normal vector at the given position. Then create the line with Line SDL. I hope that helps...

 

Cheers,

Frank

The maths components have been changed to accept all different types of data, vectors included.
