There's a correspondance between the Second
port group instances of the ClusterShapeCombiner and the value of the
SoloIndex. The shape being soloed is Second port group instance index + 1.
The value 0 for this parameter is reserved for the base shape.

Subject: mapping between items in the shape manager
and their actual shape keys?
i am trying to write a tool to do mirroring of shapes based on what a
user has soloed in the shape manager.
the shape manager logs
this...
Application.SetValue("sphere.polymsh.clustershapecombiner.SoloIndex",
1, "")
i thought maybe the track number would sync with this, but it only
does if you aren't added and subtracting shapes. this mapping is
guaranteed.
we have convention that i can use but since the shape manager
isn't logging anything but an index i dont see how to retrieve this
name.
advice?
steven
