Shape Animation Construction Mode Warning

 
 
 

If you're in a construction mode (see Creating Shapes in the Shape Modeling Construction Modes [ Shape Animation ]) other than Shape Modeling or Secondary Shape Modeling, you will get this warning when you try to set shape keys.

If you just did some modeling that you wanted to store in a shape, which is the mostly likely situation, there are two ways in which you can fix this:

If you want to store a shape that contains no deformation, click OK. The shape key is applied in the current mode:

NoteIf you had previously modeled the geometry in a Shape Modeling mode, then switched to another mode and tried to set a shape key, the deformations that were applied while you were in Shape Modeling mode will be stored in the shape.
