I'm working on a prop that is composed of five total props: a base, and four smart props. The base contains morphs for changing both its width and its height, and the smart props do not follow these morphs. They do follow the x, z, and y scales, but that's not what I want.

Is it possible to get these smart props to follow these morphs? I was thinking about a master parameter on the base to control both the x and y position of the smart props, or linking the existing morph dials on the base to such a thing.

I suppose it's some sort of cabinet with drawers tht you want to make, and you want to avoid that round knobs and the side walls of the drawers do deform when "scaling" You'll have to make separate morphs for the attached props too, and then link them to the master morph dials in the base.

So could that be done with a regular ERC control?

I'm also a bit wary about making morphs for the other props, since that might mess up their rotations. What I'm actually making is an MMA cage, and the doors for it need to follow the morphs I have to change the width and height of the main ring.

I tested adding ERC controls to one of the props, and it works the way I want. Just have to add the others now.
