Nurbs curves - Control Point weights

[morten795]

Hi,

I'm trying to find out if there is any way in Maya to assign weights to the Control Points of a NURBS curve.

If they are indeed Nurbs this should be possible - Ie. assigning a higher weight to a control point would make it have more influence on the shape of the curve...

Further, if this is possible where is the weight information stored in the MFnNurbsCurve? Maybe the w value of the control points?

Any help much appreciated

Well, I have figured it out - If anyone is interested then Maya doesn't directly support editing the weighting of control vertices (I can't find it, anyway), however they can be manipulated using a Mel script - and as I suspected the w component of the control vertices has the weighting info stored....
