Rhino question, for better GH use.

I feel like im missing something. Now for example in rhino lets say I make a planar surface using using corner to corner. When I put points on there are 4 points one at each corner. Now if I trim that surface with a closed poly line that also has 4 corners the surface is now a trimmed surface, so the 4 control points are still at the corners of the original surface, I can use shrink but it doesn't put the points exactly on the new edges, so how can I or is there a command to automatically put the control points back on the corners, short of remaking the surface with surface 4 point? thanks

I'm going out on a limb here, have you looked into Rebuild Edges? Don't know if there is a Hopper component for it.

i doubt that's of any help

No. Under very specific conditions you can Shrink the surface all the way to the edge, but most often you'll always end up with a trimmed surface. The easiest is to extract the new corners and create a new surface.
