Hi Lewis,

re:
> (my screen-grab showing how surfaces are bending upwards=.

Those bending upwards areas are some additional areas that also need to be trimmed off - if you check out the file I posted I also drew in 2 crossing lines here:



Then you trim the surface and remove these areas:



Leaving this part:

<< and i always get visible seams or even holes after i try to export that to polys. Not even join or Boolean union helped to solve that.
<< Have you tried to check your version for OBJ exporting ?

Yes and Seems not seams! :)
I made a little thickness because render don't love only simple face! :)

Aha, i get it now how you did it Michael, you basically made 4 pizza slices and then it worked 'coz bending parts are removed. I forgot tot do that cross section trim so that's why i still had messy results.

PILOU - thanks for render test

cheers and thank you both for extra effort.

Interesting approach EDDI, does it look same from side in quad view ?

And how did you split edges/curves at exact position, by trimming or there is faster way to split curve/edge ?

SplitHelper created with Multiiso script

Outer edge with > STRG + C > STRG + V > Join > Trim with AddTrimPoints at SplitHelper position and option keep.
Middle lines drawn with curve through points.

Result Old uv layout and new.
