NURBS and animation

[Anonymous]

Is it possible to animate a NURBSPointCurve, more precisely to animate the position shifting of the curve points? Thank you.

Do you want to animate "fit" points or Control Vertices?  You can keyframe a splines fit points or convert the spline to a NURBS and animate it's CVs.  Once the spline has been converted to a NURBS I do not believe you can go back and reference the original spline creation fit points.

Hi, thanks a lot for your reply.

I wanted to animate the Control Vertices' position of a NURBSPointCurve using a script, basically calling the "setPoint" method in an animation sequence.

It didn't work out with the NURBSPointCurve object but I was able to do it using a SplineShape object by calling 'animateVertex xxx #all' and then getting the controllers of the vertices and setting values for the in animation.
