Description

A ruled surface is spanned up between two input curves. These will be brought to the same degree by elevating and the same knot vector by finding shared knots and inserting all others where they are missing.

Example:

Applying a RuledSurface-Plugin leads to

Sometimes the curves are stored in opposite order, you know that if your surface by far does not look like the expected result. Thats what the flip-option is for, just check the "Flip?" checkbox and that should solve it.
