I am actually working through the same problem with similar frustrations. I am trying to tile a uniform equilateral triangle to a double-curved surface. Paneling Tools will distort the geometry, so it is not an option (when using divide by distance, the surface will not accommodate a triangle, only quads). When using orient in paneling tools, the gaps and overlaps are too extreme. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
