In Soft, when you have a curve selected, then select Point, the points(CVs) on
the hull, not the curve. To see the NURBS hull you can display it with "eyeball
-> NURBS Hull" in the viewport. Knots reside on the curve, while CVs(Point)
reside on the hull.

Hi Joey,
Do you mean curve knots? (CVs?) Maybe I haven't worked enough with NURBS
but I don't remember curves in Softimage having "hulls"?
