A shape is the position and state of all knots on a spline stored as a separate entity. The shapes are displayed in a list and they can be used to change the spline using a progress envelope. You can think of shapes as morph or poses for the spline. | A shape is the position and state of all knots on a spline stored as a separate entity.

If the spline animation is driven by shapes, individual points can still be animated separately. Be it by using envelopes or following an item. They can even be set to be static. | If the spline animation is driven by shapes, individual points can still be animated separately. Be it by using envelopes or following an item.

If shape animation is used, the envelope is exposed in the Dope sheet above the timeline - unless an animated point is selected. Then the envelopes of that point are exposed. | If shape animation is used, the envelope is exposed in the Dope sheet above the timeline - unless an animated point is selected.
