Sorry Ricky, I don't know. About the materials thing: just open as a single group, use the marquee tool to highlight what you do not want, or is in the way and hide them. You can use as many steps as you need to get rid of the stuff. (But reveal brings all of them back). If it is complicated - serially save the rds file so that you do not have to go back so far to recover. When hidden, you can not move them by mistake and you do not need to reveal to save either the obj or the rds. And if you save an rds when everything is set up, you can use it for a base for future morphs - ready to go. I guess you could take the whole figure in as a single group, but with Compose, you do not need to and you need it to get the morphs out anyway.
