Polysurface to surface? facade and Paneling Tools

Hi, I'm beginner and I have facade generated in grasshopper, then baked. In Rhino I see that my facade is polysurface. Is there any option to convert polysurface to one surface?

I would like to use Paneling Tools to create panels on my facade but I can't do this because it contains too many surfaces :(

I think you'll have to create your surface in a different way to get one surface instead of a polysurface. Maybe you can create a series of cross sections scaled to different sizes at different heights, then use 'Loft' or 'Sweep' to get the single surface result.

Did you ever get this to work? I'm having the same problem. I tried loft and sweep and those didn't work either.

Hey, if you are creating a surface with Loft command in Rhino ,in loft options make sure to unselect "Do not simplfy" option .That is when you will have single surface.
