Orient multiple curves

I am trying to generate floor plans from a tower geometry that I have developed in GH. While I can get the floor shape curves oriented on the horizontal surface, I cannot figure out how to bring other curves that accompany each "floor plan", for example, the mullions in the example below.

My original definition is huge and complex. I have attached a simplified definition below to explain the problem.

Hi Sameer,

What you need is one more Orient component:

Inputs:
G - any geometry you have created
A - curves positioned in space
B - curves oriented on surface

All of the above should have the same data tree structure.

Thank you Jacek. That is quite helpful. However, in my original model I am running into problems getting the same data tree structure. But I just have to figure that out :).

I have a following question, though:

I now trim the tower surface with a plane. I want to keep the positions of the mullions as is but leave out the ones that got trimmed. I have tried using "trim inclusion" with "cull pattern" but have not been successful.

Thanks again!
