VB component error

I am trying to implement the ShrinkSurface command from within the VB component but am getting an error.

The component is set up like this:

I get the same error when the component type is set to "surface". I have no idea how to make this seemingly simple problem go away. I suspect the trimmed surfaces are creating issues for me with the unroll command later down the line, I would like each panel to be a discrete surface so I am able to reference the center of each panel to nest and number them.

Any insight?

I do want to shrink the surfaces in preparation to unroll. I have gotten the shrink surfaces widget to work after all but it didn't solve the problem I have been having with the unroll operation... during the unroll, some of the surfaces are made invalid and subsequently dropped from the final layout. I've posted that issue in this thread:
