Shape entities are collections of handle and/or node perturbations from the initial configuration of the FE mesh before the morph.  When you morph your model, HyperMorph stores the morph internally as a collection of perturbations which you can then undo, redo, and/or save as a shape.  Shapes are shown under the Shape folder within the Model browser.

Shapes have a display state, on or off, which controls the display of a shape in the graphics area.  The display state of a shape can be controlled using the icon next to the shape entity in the Model browser.

Shapes do not have active or export states.

 

The following panels can be used to create and edit shapes:
