Hi,

Does anyone know how to minimize the arc length of a spline on surface?
The surfaces I'm looking at are highly irregular.

Thanks in advance,
MT

I think if you draw a spline between two points you get minimum
distance.

In the event that doesn't hold true, remembering a discussion on Rhino's forum a
search turned up

http://www.rhino3d.com/tutorials/vbscript/RhinoScript.pdf

There is supposed to be a routine for creating geodesic curves.
