--------------------------------------
In my case I wanted to control the shape and direction of the expanding
shock wave. (wich you can do in layout, using Size and Stretch) For me, it
was easyer to deform and see the final shape in modeler. I used a modeler
macro called load scene to load certain objects from the scene, in there
Layout orentation. Using the scene in a background layer, I could reshape and
position the shock wave using modeler's modify tools, and save it out as a
Morph Target.
