As easy as it is in Rhino to create this with tangent snap, I can’t find any grasshopper component capable of doing this, i.e. drawing a tangent line to a curve from a given point.
Thank you, I know this component, which works fine with circles indeed! But tangent with bezier curve for example?
Oh, ok, now I see no circle… stupid me 
this could be a starting point

This is more than a starting point, it works for my use, thanks!
I had just started looking in rhinocommon, but as I’m not an expert, I may take a while.
That script works great. Much better than my solution with Galapagos.
Actually I’m surprised there isn’t a Grasshopper component for this.
