shaping morph element w/ SEO?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I'm doing an inclined barrel vault roof using the morph tool and then shaping the morph roof edges using SEO which seems to be working well until it comes to mirroring the roof about the chimney and shaping that roof things get a bit dicey with all these operator elements.
I usually hide the operators on a hidden layer, but am wondering if there isn't a better way to do this. Or, maybe there is a way to lock the changes
into the morph so that it doesn't require the operators any more?
See screen shot below. You can just see the operators 50 ft below.
Am experimenting with different cambered barrel vaults.

Here is another screen shot below.
While this is working for design purposes am wondering about further refinement like getting an angle on the fascia like you can with slabs and walls? More solid element operations using battered walls? Ugh

You can save the Morph as an Object, which will burn in the SEO modifications, then place this Object and convert it to Morph to continue editing. Repeat as needed.

You can make SEO permanent on a morph in de SEO pallette/dialog thingy.
