Can you be more specific? maybe post a sketch or Rhino example of what you want to achieve.

the thing is that i used the panelling tools to generate a set of panels on a surface. hence i have an extruded polysurf as a panel. now when i proliferate it on the surface, according to the surf modulation it spreads so obviously the panels will be non planar at places to achieve the curve... which lands me in a new problem to how to triangulate this panel to make it planar. hope m clear.

Thnx.

Is the surface made up of individual quads or do you need to panel a single surface first?

the red thing is a single panel output on the base surface... i started off with a 3d box as a panel

sorry to take so long, busy at work.

Shift List could be one way to achieve these results

I was creating surfaces to demonstrate an example on. Unless you provide some files I cannot tailor make anything that is going to work straight out of the box for you. You will have to figure out how your model fits in with this definition.

Danny, i hv attached the files which i m working on. if possible have a look. appreciate it. from what i can see theres some problem in the formation of the pline... seems like its not taking into consideration all points.
