randym77 and Likos asked if this method would work in reverse. That is: could an object be made to deform a figure..? Yes... it is possible :-) The pic shows the effect when the magnet is created for the figure's right buttock but parented to the object (a box primitive). You can see in the pic... that the left buttock which has not been magnetized intersects with the object as normal. ziggie
