conform parts of a spline to a surface

[stevesideas]

Is there any way to conform parts of a spline to a surface ? I don't want the entire spline to conform.

Itoosoft's glue is the standard for spline conforming. The only way I know of doing parts of the spline instead of the whole is to break the spline up and glue the parts you want to conform. Seems simple enough.

How do you invisage specifying what does and doesn't conform? Point by point or matID based?

I was hoping that you could select the spline segments and conform those only. Not a problem though, I ended up using glue and detaching the segments I wanted to conform to the mesh and then re-attached. Worked a treat.
