Difficulty editing NURBS mesh

Hello.

I’m creating a pendant in blender using NURBS.

So far it seems like it will go well.

So here is the mesh I’ve assigned to the curve


But I would like to edit the ends by scaling them inwards to make them smaller in diameter.

When I hit tab to go into edit mode I get this


My object pops of the curve… Yes I can edit it like this, however it’s difficult because I can’t see precisely which face/vertices go to what part of the curb…I can estimate but again it’s not the most practical thing.

Is there a way to make it so when I’m editing the mesh I can see it lined up with my curve?

Thank you!

Next to the eye icon button on modifier tab might help.

That didn’t quite work, however I found if I just edit the curve (and not select the mesh) it works.

Thank you for your response!
