Deformer updates (What's New in Maya 2022.2)

A new Scaling section has been added to the Solidify deformer to let you resize tagged geometry.

Use the Scale Mode settings in the Solidify deformer options to determine how the deformation treats the geometry:

Normal Scale and Tangent Plane Scale fields let you apply uniform offsets to the scale effect.

See Resizing areas of a deformation in the Create a Solidify Deformer topic.
