Select, tilt and blur attribute


So i want to be able to correct individually the tilt of each of four side of the border. I select them by their normal orientation. Using the bolean selection input of the curve tilt give a really stiff result so i put a blur attribute and plug it in the tilt value instead. now i get the smooth transition that i’m looking for but i can’t control the amount of tilt. Putting a add node in-between tilt the entire Border again.
how can i solve this?

Hello. Check out this node-group:

You can use the alignment-vector input to get the profile to follow the surface normals. The node-group sets the tilt of the curve based on the normal inputs. Press tab to open the node-group to see how it was done.

Good luck.

flawless result! didn’t knew about sample nearest surface either.
thank you for your time, it helps a lot.
Could i bother you a bit more? i would be interested to have an answer to my initial question, even if i was on the wrong path for that use case, i would be interested to implement this kinds of shape controls for experimenting designs

You can put a multiply math node after the blur attribute to scale your tilt, which will in effect control it.

Hope that helped.
