Hello all,

I have a grid that has been displaced to look like mountatins. I would like to be able to extract a selected set of edges from that geometry and convert it into a curve object where the verticies become the CVs for that curve. Any ideas? Thank you.

Nowadays there is also Curve From Edges SOP alias (technically Convert Line SOP)
