OBSOLETE: See ffBlendSrf node. Compute a freeform surface that blends between two surface rails. Each rail may consist of one or more surface curves on one or more surfaces. The tangent direction the blended surface leaves each rail is determined by flipLeft and flipRight. The blended surface can be twisted by using leftParameter and rightParameter.
