Hi Chris

just a simple demand ,

how to make for obtain one Entrimmed Surf

rather than a Mesh ?

Like making in order to extract the perimetrals edge

of the Trimmed Surf , and use it , whit the circles ,

to generate a Entrimmed Surf-

 Tanks in advanced

Hi Alberto, just skip the last mesh-component and you are left with a trimmed surface. Not sure, but I believe that Chris used it to get a nicer preview of the surface. Without it the surface looks a bit odd, but once you bake it you'll notice that it's perfectly fine.

Hi Al,

I don't quite understand your question.  I don't know how you would create an untrimmed surface from the edge curves but you can certainly extract the edge curves.

Hi Lars
I'am happy for feeling ... your voice
I have seen your post about the Interwoven Surf, truly of great interest, Compliments… but maybe this is a misunderstanding about that matter-

I asked if is possible to use  a Planar Surf component,in order to obtain
a (Entrimmed Surf) rather a Brep or a  Mesh-
Brep-Brep Components - Trimmed Surf - use the curves on Brep Components
to built a Surf-
and if yes like making -

best

(sorry for my bad english)

Here's the definition.  The mesh component at the far right is just for appearances while viewing in Grasshopper as noted by Lars.
