IMPORTANT NODE UPDATE: The LunchBox Quad Grid by Face node (shown in Step 2 of this workflow) has been replaced with a new Panel.PanelQuad node. The older node is no longer working, so you should use this new Panel.PanelQuad node instead.
The key difference is that the Panel.PanelQuad node returns groups of quad points, so there's no need to flatten the output from this new node. You can feed the output directly into the AdaptiveComponent.ByPoints node to create 4-point adaptive panels.
The example files have been updated to use this new Panel.PanelQuad node.
Overview
Step 1: Select or Define a Surface
Step 2: Divide Surface into Placement Points & Group Them
Be sure to use the new Panel.PanelQuad node instead of the LunchBox Quad Grid By Face node shown in the video (around 2:29).Â

Step 3: Place Adaptive Panels using Groups of Points
Step 4: Create Rhino Surface Panels using Grasshopper
