Want to write NURBS with FME. Found that IFC supports it, however I guess FME can not write it. Any other format FME can write that create NURBS? (http://www.buildingsmart-tech.org/ifc/)

Hi @sigtill,

FME currently has no support for NURBS in its internal geometry, so if we do read them from a format, we would be stroking them to a standard surface. We do have enhancement requests to add NURBs support, but this is a long term objective.
