When "Accumulate" is checked, clicking and dragging across the surface multiple times will add to or accumulate the amount of deformation of the surface.
When "Accumulate" is UNchecked, the amount of deformation, i.e., "Magnitude", is a fixed amount and does NOT accumulate.

Hi Cimaira,
I'm sorry but I must confess that my website has taken a backseat to
other RL activities and, alas, Poser U has taken a backseat to my website.
I have several tutorials done for Poser 7 but they never got posted for a variety of reasons. Maintaining and updating a website takes time and $ and I do not charge anything for my "stuff," so ...
I don't have a great deal of motivation ($) to do any updates. Maybe next year. :lol:
Right now, I'm just posting tutorials (WIP) here in the Poser Forum.

Has anyone encountered a 'lock out' of the morph tool? I made a custom character, both face and body which I saved seperately as Head and Body morphs. Now however, if I try to use the morph tool further on the face it has no effect. I was trying to smooth the transition between the neck and head under the chin, but the tool only affects the neck and not the head. I'm using PoserPro2010.

Yeah, it does that some times. Sometimes you can switch to "relative to screen" and pull the mesh enough that it straightens up. Other times you just have to use "restore" and start over.
