Can I morph a character's clothes or hair?

Question

Hello,

I'm on a Macbook Pro using Character Animate CC. I'm trying to create a short Cartoon with a couple of characters in it.

Is it possible to morph a character's Clothes or Hair?

Could you point me to relevant documentation?

Thank You.

Regards,

Rajnesh

Just tossing some other ideas out there to add to the mix.

For hair, another idea is to use hair dangles in combination with recording a gravity direction blend. Change the gravity from downwards to upwards so the hair goes up behind the head. Not sure how reliable, but it might work.
An easy way is to have two sets of clothes, put a Transform behavior on them, then record an Opacity blend to fade out one set and fad in the other set (like Jerry did with the hair earlier in this thread)
But you can add to it - have another “glow” layer so you fade that in, swap the clothes behind, fade out the glow layer.
If you want true morphs, you could export the before and after clothes as PNGs (not the rest of the puppet) and feed into After Effects to do a true morph - How to Morph PNG Images - After Effects Tutorial - YouTube - then export a PNG Sequence from AE (AME can export videos as PNGs with transparencies) then load those PNG frames up as a cycle layer in CH. That one could be kinda cool as it might allow you to have the clothes moving during the morph!

You could also use the opacity behavior to do it smoothly. Another hair group behind would bring up a new style
