Custom pattern on spherical surface WITHOUT panelling Tools

Rhino Rhino for Mac

Hey everyone!

i want to project a honeycomp-pattern into a spherical/dome shape. The pattern represents the inner-structure for a helmet.

Now that the panelling tools are no longer available for the mac version, i have no clue how to get the pattern into this shape. Flowalongsrf doesnt give me the desired results. It always distortes the pattern. Array on surface isnt precise enough. Can anyone show me way to get it right? Otherwise i have to look for another 3D software…

You can still use it in the Rhino 5 for Mac WIP. The WIP and the release candidate can be installed side by side.

Does that give you what you need for this project?
