hello,
 
how can i get the point array of a hypernurb object?
If its a point object its easy to write
Vector *array = ptrObj->GetPoint();
But with hypernurbs it doesn´t work. But i won´t translate the hypernurb objetc to a point object.
Can you help me? If you know what i mean?

Do you want the HyperNURBS control points or the resulting polygonal mesh points? If the latter, you need to convert the HyperNURBS into a polygonal mesh to get at these points using SendModelingCommand(MCOMMAND_CURRENTSTATETOOBJECT...). The result of this is a polygonal object.

Oh, no. I need the resulting polygonal mesh points to edit them. I want to keep the advantages of a Hypernurb. It is possible ?

As far as I know, not possible. You can manipulate the HN control points or the underlying mesh (if the child is polygonal), but in order to get at the mesh points resulting from the HN it is required to 'permanently' convert it to a polygonal mesh. If the action is temporary and non-modifying, you can clone and convert, but if the edits are to be made permanently on the HN object, I don't think that can be done.
