In this method, the toolpath flows on the part surfaces following the curves.  User must specify one or more contiguous curve or surface edges as drive curve which would be used as flow curves and select surfaces as drive surfaces. The drive curves needs to be on the surface edge of surface used as drive surfaces. You can use Lead/Lag angle controls to tilt the tool in the direction of cut.
