How to use Morph

  1. Select the layer whose linework you want to transform
  2. Open Studio → Add Modifier → Shapes & Utilities → Morph
  3. A modifier node is appended to the layer stack (non-destructive)
  4. Reorder modifiers in the stack; later modifiers see earlier output
  5. Tune parameters in the modifier card; preview updates on the canvas

Menu path: Add Modifier → Shapes & Utilities → Morph

What you can plot with Morph

  • Pen-plotter art on A4/A3 beds (Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, and other pen-holder setups)

Frequently asked questions

Where is Morph in the menu?

Add Modifier → Shapes & Utilities → Morph

What can I adjust?

Start with the key controls above, then fine-tune everything else in the inspector inside Studio.

Is this non-destructive?

Yes. Modifiers run on the layer stack without destroying source elements. Reorder or remove the modifier node to revert.

Does Morph work with multi-pen plotting?

Yes. Use Pen Palette on a layer to split linework by color, or set per-path ink on modifiers like Offset.
