Find center point (intersection between helper lines)

Hey all,

I started just started today working for rhino/ grasshopper. I have a given 3dm model and I need to export many points from similar shapes into excel for another project, so far I am making slow but steady process doing so automatically in grasshopper. I am currently not getting any further:

I need to get a point at the intersection of two “helper lines” of an geometrie, the helper lines are not edges (see attachment). I have tried to just catch the point manually but the point does not “snap” into place at the intersection, therefore it would be inaccurate. I would really appreciate if someone could help me. Also i cannot select the helper lines as curves/lines etc.

Thanks in advance
Lukas
wanted point

_ExtractWireframe, then _Intersect. But not sure what that would give you, since these isocurves are a bit arbitrary

With the trimmed surface you may not get the results you are looking for.

the grasshopper way is Iso Curve component, with an MD Slider and reparametrized surface.

seems to be behaving, there will be cases where this won’t work as expected.
