Hi, I am trying to learn your nurbs program, but when I change a curve by moving the points, they are deleted and cannot be changed anymore.
Operating system lubuntu 16.04 64bit

    Greetings,

    all your curves have a Scale_X attribute of zero, which confuses the point
    editing.
    Were you trying to ensure planarity this way?
    I am asking, because in the current version, zero is a forbidden value for
    any scale attribute (even if not detected/enforced properly). However,
    if there is a clear use case...

    regards,
    Randolf

    Were you trying to ensure planarity this way? Yes :P
    It is true, in fact I scaled the vertices, restricted to an axis, to align the points, but how do I align the vertices?

    You can use direct point edit on all points with just X set to zero (leave all other
    entries empty).
    Then simply edit in a Side view.
