I have explained earlier the way for a “parametric” breaking up of a curve into components. I immediately thought, that I should create a template for that function, so as to avoid situation, in which formulas would have to be entered manually.

This time it ended up successful thanks to the functionality of Knowledge Pattern, that lets you create Datum curves in a loop. That gave a little tiny script :

which resulted in a contour, broken down into component curves :

I would call that method “half-parametric”, because it gives us Datum-type curves without the possibility to reach the Parent through Parents/Children analysis. Therefore, KP also generates a parameter assigned to each elementary curve with a Parent name… Well, better than nothing 🙂

And here’s the method in action :
