HI I feel really stupid since it's such a simple thing but I can't seem to close Michael 4's eyes. I took a long break form Daz so now I'm relearning everything but I can't seem to do this. I found all of the other morphs to make them baggy, wrinkle, etc but I can't figure out how to make them close. Can someone help me out?

    Select the Head

    In the Parameters tab: Morphs|Expressions > Base > EyesOpen-Close

    And because you are talking about 'blinking', I presume you are setting up an animation.
    In that case don't forget to key the timeline three times.

    There used to be a plugin for DS3 called Life 3. It had presets for many things like blinking and breathing. It was really useful. I can find it in my product history but can find the product page. Guess it was another of those plugins that never got updated and dropped. I really hate that.

    I know. I also bought it at the time. "Camera Earthquake", "V4 Blink", "V4 breathing", something with Angelfish.
    I vaguely remember the publishers website I visited more than a year ago, but the site looked sort of abandoned.

    Thanks! I think I didn't have the whatyamacallit, sidebar? LOL pulled out enough. So it didn't read as Eyes, I must have went through that section a dozen times. But when I knew it was definitely the place to look I pulled it out farther and then I found it , thanks.:).

    Yeah I"m setting up an animation.I didn't get as far as keying the timeline yet...meaning I don't' know what that is.LOL I only watched a few tuts and none of them referred to keying..Is there somewhere you can point me to that discusses that?
