I'm trying to visualise the trend in some variables very close to a boundary that has rounded corners. Ideally I'd like either: A) a series of 2D data slices normal to the boundary of interest; or B) a series of curves that run parallel to the boundary at a definable distance.

I note that the 2D cut line allows you to define additional parallel lines, but these are obviously parallel to the original defined cut vector, so won't follow the boundary around a corner.

I guess I could define a series of parameterised curves that run adjacent to the boundary using piece-wise type functions but trying to write this makes my head hurt.

Using the contour data set on a wall-distance result gives me approximately what I want, but of course contour data cannot be plotted on 1D line plots.

Attached is an image showing the types of 2D slices I want, albeit the actual contours will be orders of magnitude closer to the wall. Is there an easier way than defined multiple parameterised curves, or lots of different 2D slices?

Many Thanks
