I have a problem getting the geometry in a pattern-based curtain panel to offset consistently from the edge of the adaptive points line. The UV grid is straight when applied to my surface.
When I add the panel family the lines are skewed at the top left corner.
I think there's a problem with the reference point hosted by point 6 in the panel family but I cannot work out what. I've attached the panel family to the post.
The reason I need the panels to remain parallel to the grid is that I want this model to form the basis of a stone schedule for ordering purposes.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I am not sure what you are asking about, but I think you are referring to the overlap reported in this AKN Article.
Also, take a look at the attached RFA and see how the nested panel family in it is built differently from yours.
Here's another way: See Family 4 in attached HalfStep-2.rfa
Try this one. I don't have 2021 so I use 2019 to recreate it.
AARGH! Everything I just did for the OP was 2022! I hate it when that happens. Oh well.
BTW: the second one I did was using the void approach as well. The first one I did was using hosted and offset Ref. Points to Spline through. .
Thanks to you both for your input. Is a void cut always the best way to do this? Will it work on curved panels?
@ToanDN that works great, thank you for this. @barthbradley thank you too, I'll look at your versions once I install 2022.

When you do, you'll see that mine is much better. I won't be sticking around for the solution credit though. My work is done here. I'm off to save the planet now.

In a general sense, I wouldn't be claiming that using a void is the best way, or even a better way than other approaches. In your particular family, it is faster to sweep a profile based on your parameters along the path defined in the template than adding more points, hosting and constraining them properly.
Interesting link...that case was opened in 2019! not sure it is still under investigation though

You got my hopes up there for a minute. But alas, the "two-inch overlap" is still with us in 2022.
Well not on my end look closer at the previous post
Nighty...time for me to get off...all I see is codes, blocks, 1s and 0s

Well, at first blush, I must admit, it does look pretty good. Post your file.

No. You are correct.
