"If one would like to animate relative Shape Keys in Blender, this unfortunately, cannot be done with Actions. (See Action Editor)"

I've only recently discovered that Shape Keys CAN be controlled with the Action Editor (and optionally the NLA editor).

The key seems to be

  • Setting the IPO type to Shape in the IPO window
  • Enabling the 'Sets IPO to be included in action' Icon in the IPO window

I didn't update the page, as I'm not 100% sure of how this works --Mstram 10:31, 20 August 2006 (CEST) Mike

You can include an shape key ipo into an action, but that is not what you use driven shape keys for. You can't blend shape actions in the NLA as you would blend the driver ipos. --Soylentgreen 17:24, 23 January 2007 (CET)
