Hi everyone, I’m looking for help understanding how to create an evenly distributed pattern across multiple surfaces that were modeled in Alias and then imported into Rhino and Grasshopper. [Screenshot 2026-07-02 113217] The surfaces are made up of several filleted and trimmed patches, and each …

From a topological point of view your polysurface is a rectangle so you could create a 4 sided surface and pull points from there to the polysurface and then use some Kangaroo magic to distribute the points. Or try the recently added plugin ShapeMap

thank you so much will try to use that

i face the same issue with it and as these not only rectangular but has some fillets as well so i guess can u please help me with some steps as I’m quite new to the software so

Hi Noel - [image] Noel Simon: can u please help me with some steps as I’m quite new to the software so To make it easier for others to help you, please always post the relevant .gh and/or .3dm files. -wim

Hi yea this is the .3dm file multi surface.3dm (460.5 KB)

The polysurface is not curved too much so I think you could get a good result with this process here: 2D scale the brep so it becomes planar. extract the borders rebuild the borders so you have 4 segments create a new planar base surface divide the surface pull the points to the 2D brep find close…

Thank you so much that exactly what i wanted I was actually trying the shape map tool if any one can help me in that it would be great as i wanted to see how it works exactly

Thank you so much this is what i wanted I have another question ,the line which was made for the L0 and L1 how was it made like how the line are defined of them is it based on the surface and does it have to me equal and L1 has to be on the XY plane??
