Thanks Brent, but the decomposing is not working. I managed (I think is through evaulation of the subsurfaces, but I'm not 1005 sure) to get the normal vector at the desired point.
The next question is...¿is it posible to subdivide the surface in direct relation to the circle radius? What I'm trying to acomplish is not panelling with a determinate form that adapts to a surface but to panellate with a determinate panel of a fixed size (fixed for each case not for each u,v point) that adapts in number and rotation to the surface. Here is the second attempt. http://groups.google.com/group/grasshopper3d/web/PSEUDO%20PANELLING%2001.jpg http://groups.google.com/group/grasshopper3d/web/M_diagrid_2.ghx Thanks to all!!
