geometry.numVertices float[ ] The number of vertices in each curve.
The following XML is from a Scene Graph
that creates 3 linear curves with 3
segments:

<attr type="IntAttr"
name="degree" tupleSize="1">
<sample value="1 " size="1"

The numVertices list defines the index
ranges of the knots used by each curve.
