Is it possible to change the order of a nurbs curve in code?

[magneto]

I am creating a SOP that creates a NURBS curve in a specific shape using createNURBSCurve. But it seems like there isn't a way to specify the order of it:

Anyone knows if I can change its order in code after creating the curve?

I know Line gives you this option, but I can't create it inside a Python SOP, right? Otherwise would be pretty sweet to use it and expose its options to artists.

Cheers

This is not possible. There's an existing RFE for it however. You could probably do it using inlinecpp if you know HDK.

Thanks Graham for confirming it. It's good to know

I'm like 99% sure I shouldn't be even trying to write this as I have no coding experience in Hou.

Anyways, in other places I would tackle this by storing things like these as objects in an array. So if necessary I could access them in which order I desire. Would something like this be possible?

Are you talking about the NURBS Order value? Because I feel like you are talking about something like point order?

If you use Line SOP in your SOP instead of writing a Python SOP, then you can expose this Order value easily.

Sorry, looks like a miss interpreted you. I thought you meant order like in sequence, and I think you mean order in degrees.

No worries man
