Extracting Curves from UV coordinates of a surface

from the divide surface, feed the P output to a polyline. (not the UV output - UV is the parametric coordinates which are 0-1, not the points.) you should then get one set of curves.

Using a path mapper, map the P output, the operation should be something like
source: {A;B;C}(i)
target: {A;B;i}(C)

Then feed such output to a polyline to get the other curves.

Note also, in your definition, you feed a plane to the Divide surface, which is not a normal operation, you should feed a surface to it.

Thanks Victor,

very helpful indeed, and ofcourse easier than I thought. And thanks for the tip about the plane vs surface.
