Hey, I saw a post where someone customized a SubD pattern using the PanelingTools plugin. They mentioned using ptGridSurfaceDomainNumber, but I tried it and couldn’t get the same result. Does anyone know how this actually works? Would really appreciate any help!

not sure if this is the latest help available.
please post a surface / and geometry you want to “panel”.
i am quite sure that _ToNurbs is involved explicit or behind the scenes of the command.
Thanks for your response. I’ve attached the model —please have a look and let me know your thoughts.

_toNurbs works fine on your surface
you might need to adapt the seams
_srfSeam
now you have a Nurbs Surface that can be served as a Target for Panelling.
the object you are panel along that surface can be a SubD.
After paneling, you can Join the facets to one Subd.
check some of the tutorials like this:

Hey Thank you so much for your response but iam getting an issue while converting to meshfrom lines
do you know why this is happening or missed any steps?
Please note that in the ptGridSurfaceDomainNumber command I’m demo, the spans vallues in both the U and V directions are set to even number, not odd numbers.
