Rhino-adjusting the shape of an opening/hole within a non-planar surface

cloak and dagger

a nurbs surface needs to have varied openings/holes. we have been trimming these holes from the nurbs surface with varied size objects.

Is it possible to change the shape and scale of these opeings/holes after they have already been trimmed from the surface?

Is it possible to create CV's at the trimmed edges?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Use the hole command instead of trimming?

and keep the "record history" switched on.

untrim and re trim with a new curve if the history doesn't work in v4 for that command

how would one go about doing that in grasshopper? Is it an easy step or does it require a long script? sorry I've never used Grasshopper before..

btw.. like Antisthenes said, untrim, adjust the curve or draw a new one and trim it again
