SplitMeshWithCurve in grasshopper

Hi there,

I’m looking for a way to replicate de SplitMeshWithCurve command in grasshooper.

I have this curve that fits the mesh and the rhino commands work beautifully but cant do i can’t same in gh.

I tried to patch a mesh out of it and then mesh split. Result is long to calculate and not very accurate.

I would like to extrude the curve with a surface normal direction. Somethig similar to the ribbonoffset command.

How can i extrude a curve with multiple vectors that are normal to my curve’s points ? (onmesh component has been used to create the curve)

Thnaks in advance!

A quick workaround is to create a mesh pipe and use that for splitting. You end up with 3 pieces.

If that doesn’t work for you, sweep a line along the curve, basically the ribbon approach you mention.

There are already discussions on that
