    • MESH_CACHE Mesh Cache – Deform the mesh using an external frame-by-frame vertex transform cache.

    • MESH_SEQUENCE_CACHE Mesh Sequence Cache – Deform the mesh or curve using an external mesh cache in Alembic format.

    • NORMAL_EDIT Normal Edit – Modify the direction of the surface normals.

    • WEIGHTED_NORMAL Weighted Normal – Modify the direction of the surface normals using a weighting method.

    • UV_PROJECT UV Project – Project the UV map coordinates from the negative Z axis of another object.

    • UV_WARP UV Warp – Transform the UV map using the difference between two objects.

    • VERTEX_WEIGHT_EDIT Vertex Weight Edit – Modify of the weights of a vertex group.

    • VERTEX_WEIGHT_MIX Vertex Weight Mix – Mix the weights of two vertex groups.

    • VERTEX_WEIGHT_PROXIMITY Vertex Weight Proximity – Set the vertex group weights based on the distance to another target object.

    • ARRAY Array – Create copies of the shape with offsets.

    • BEVEL Bevel – Generate sloped corners by adding geometry to the mesh’s edges or vertices.

    • BOOLEAN Boolean – Use another shape to cut, combine or perform a difference operation.

    • BUILD Build – Cause the faces of the mesh object to appear or disappear one after the other over time.

    • DECIMATE Decimate – Reduce the geometry density.

    • EDGE_SPLIT Edge Split – Split away joined faces at the edges.

    • MESH_TO_VOLUME Mesh to Volume.

    • MULTIRES Multiresolution – Subdivide the mesh in a way that allows editing the higher subdivision levels.

    • REMESH Remesh – Generate new mesh topology based on the current shape.

    • SCREW Screw – Lathe around an axis, treating the input mesh as a profile.

    • SKIN Skin – Create a solid shape from vertices and edges, using the vertex radius to define the thickness.

    • SOLIDIFY Solidify – Make the surface thick.

    • SUBSURF Subdivision Surface – Split the faces into smaller parts, giving it a smoother appearance.

    • TRIANGULATE Triangulate – Convert all polygons to triangles.

    • VOLUME_TO_MESH Volume to Mesh.

    • WELD Weld – Find groups of vertices closer than dist and merge them together.

    • WIREFRAME Wireframe – Convert faces into thickened edges.

    • ARMATURE Armature – Deform the shape using an armature object.

    • CAST Cast – Shift the shape towards a predefined primitive.

    • CURVE Curve – Bend the mesh using a curve object.

    • DISPLACE Displace – Offset vertices based on a texture.

    • HOOK Hook – Deform specific points using another object.

    • LAPLACIANDEFORM Laplacian Deform – Deform based a series of anchor points.

    • LATTICE Lattice – Deform using the shape of a lattice object.

    • MESH_DEFORM Mesh Deform – Deform using a different mesh, which acts as a deformation cage.

    • SHRINKWRAP Shrinkwrap – Project the shape onto another object.

    • SIMPLE_DEFORM Simple Deform – Deform the shape by twisting, bending, tapering or stretching.

    • SMOOTH Smooth – Smooth the mesh by flattening the angles between adjacent faces.

    • CORRECTIVE_SMOOTH Smooth Corrective – Smooth the mesh while still preserving the volume.

    • LAPLACIANSMOOTH Smooth Laplacian – Reduce the noise on a mesh surface with minimal changes to its shape.

    • SURFACE_DEFORM Surface Deform – Transfer motion from another mesh.

    • WARP Warp – Warp parts of a mesh to a new location in a very flexible way thanks to 2 specified objects.

    • WAVE Wave – Adds a ripple-like motion to an object’s geometry.
