Prepare for Lattice Deformation

In this dialog box, set the division step parameter for each axis (X, Y, and Z)

Entries Related to the Lattice Deforma- tion in the [Browser] Window

All shapes related to the Lattice deformation are put into this part.

• [#Original objects part] contains the original shape.
• Below the "#Original objects part" entry, the name of the shape (part) selected prior to the deformation is displayed. This shape is deformed.
• [#Lattice1] is the Lattice shape to which the deformation is applied.

Note Do not edit the part hierarchy related to the Lattice deformation. Also, do not add or delete control points for the shapes associated with the Lattice deformation. Otherwise, further Lattice deformation operations will be impossible.

Repeating the Lattice Deformation Operation

The Lattice deformation can be repeated by first selecting and editing the Lattice deformation shape and then selecting the [Lattice Deformer] again. Assigning this plugin to one of the shortcuts lets you use it more quickly.

When you are finished deforming the shape, you may move the deformed shape out of the part related to the Lattice, and delete that part.

Reverting to the Original Shape

If you want to return to the original pre-deformed shape, expand the [#Original objects part] and take the original shape out of it, then delete the part containing the Lattice.
