 +This deformer allows for a mesh to be deformed using a normal transformation (position, rotation, scale), optionally limited by a weight map.
 +
 +Since deformers can be stacked, multiple Transform Deformers can be applied to different parts of a mesh, separated by weight maps.
 +
 +===== Controls =====
 +
 +==== Reference Item ====
 +
 +This allows you to use an item to define the change in Position, Rotation or Scale.
 +
 +==== World Coordinates ====
 +
 +If this is enabled, all transformations will be in world coordinates.
 +
 +<WRAP center round important >
 +If a Reference Item is selected, the transformation groups down below will not be available.
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +
 +==== Weight Map ====
 +
 +This allows for selecting a weight map which limits the influence of the transformation on a per vertex basis.
 +
 +Weight maps can also be used to separate parts of a mesh, by setting the respective vertices to 100% while the unrelated ones remain at 0%.
 +==== Position / Rotation / Scale / Pivot ====
 +
 +The transformation groups. These allow for fine grained control of which transformation is being applied.
 +
 +Individual control for them is is not available if World Coordinates is on and a Reference Item has been selected.
 +
 +=== Controller ===
 +
 +{{ :tools:pasted:20210526-140639.png}}
 +
 +This defines how the current transformation group is controlled. This setting is not available if World Coordinates is on and a Reference Item has been selected.
 +
 +  * **Disable** This transformation group is ignored.
 +  * **Keyframed** The keyframed values are being used.
 +  * **Use Item** The values from the selected Reference Items are being used.
 +
 +
 +=== XYZ/HPB Values ===
 +
 +The values for the current transformation group. These may be animated using envelopes.
