morphs & figures
« on: July 02, 2008, 12:16:47 pm »

I made a figure of a humanoid and I had given the object morphs for lip sinking but now in scene mode I can't find the morphs.  How do I access them? Can I?

either expand the menu tree at the bottom of the screen (left of the timeline), or use the graph editor (the button for that is on the right-hand end of the top menu bar).  if you open graph editor and select the object, then the morph should show up in the properties list on the left of the graph.

hope that helps :)

Add figure in scene mode. At first there won't be any morphs.
Then add the object that makes the figure into the scene mode.
Delete   that object.
The morphs will magically appear on your figure.
Presto :)

Thanks for your help but I discovered another technique once I made the figure the parent of another object the morphs apeared.
