Quote - I'm still not real sure what you're meaning.
Since the mouth can only be opened by morph targets, any morphs made on the lips while the mouth is opened will also include the open mouth.
I've been trying to think of something I can do for you to have access to those lips, but I can't think of anything that doesn't involve opening the mouth.

The trouble I'm having is that I have to open the lips to get the lips apart so I can try and morph them. But when I close the lips again, the morph looks weird for lack of a better word. The OTHER morph is interfering with the morph I'm trying to make. I'm not trying to make open mouth morphs is the thing ;o).
