Create lattice deformers

To create a lattice deformer

  1. Select one or more deformable objects.
  2. Select Deform > (Create) Lattice > .

    The Lattice Options window appears.

  3. Click the Basic and Advanced tabs and set the creation options.

    See Deform > (Create) Lattice and Advanced deformer options.

  4. Click Create to create a lattice deformer. A skeletal lattice box surrounds the object.
  5. Use the Move (W), Rotate (E), or Scale (R) tools influence lattice points.
  6. Edit lattice deformer channels and attributes.

    For more information on creating and editing deformation effects, see Lattice deformers and lattice flexors and Edit lattice deformers.

Tip: If you want to create a falloff (or ramp effect) for this deformer, so that the results of the deformation decrease or drop off after a specified distance, use Component Tags. See Create deformer falloffs.
