Mesh to Nurb(then use GH to select the surface)

Hi, guys.I have a problems here.There is a model done in 3DMAX,and then export in 3dmax to 3ds file.I use rhino to import this 3ds file and it is a mesh in rhino.

I tried to use gh to use "surface" command to set that mesh surface.But it could not be selected.How can I do to use gh to select this mesh surface.Should I have to convert mesh to nurb firstly, and then to select it in gh?I tried this method with a plug-in. However, after converting to nurb. It does not the same shape before converting.Is there any better solution???Thanks!!!a lot!!!!

For what purpose do you want to use the mesh object? You can reference mesh objects directly.

I want to do something more fun.like I have a surface created in Rhino,which I could select and play around in GH. Cause if I do not change the surface type, there is only a few function for mesh editing in GH.

Resurf will convert your model to nurbs surfaces.

If you have access to maya you might be able to do a similar thing too.

I think suggestions to your query would be pretty specific to the geometry you're working with.

Posting some screenshots are always very helpful for getting feedback.
