The 'mpBirailSrf' node computes a NURBS surface by sweeping a NURBS profile towards each of the other profiles along two given NURBS rail curves. The profiles should intersect the rail curves. The profiles, rails can also be surface curves i.e. isoparms, curve on surface, trimmed edges.

The attributes 'tangentContinuityProfile1' and 'tangentContinuityProfile2' can be set to true if the surface is to be tangent continuous with the first and last profile curve respectively.
