You can remove target shapes from a blend shape deformer in different ways. With either method, the target shape is removed from the Blend Shape deformer's node, which you can see in the Shape Editor and the Channel Box. The shape animation is re-interpolated for the blend shape to account for this change.
To remove target shapes in the Shape Editor
- Select one or more target shapes in the Shape Editor.
- Click the
Delete icon
or right-click a selected target shape and choose
Delete.
If you have created target shapes from multiple target objects (see Create blend shapes using multiple target objects), the target shape's corresponding target object is not deleted.
To remove target shapes using Options
- Select the target object whose target shape you want to remove.
- Select
Deform > (Edit) Blend Shape > Remove >
to open the
Blend Shape Remove Options.
- Select the Blend Shape node and the target shape that you want to remove in the Options dialog box.
The target shape is removed, but not its corresponding target object.
