Regarding the description on page 6-11, turn on Display/Geometry/All Lines
in the 3D Editor to see the triangular faces of which all objects are made.
Regarding the morphing, I'd have to ask again: did you _really_ read
through the tutorials? From beginning to end? The morphing tutorial that
begins on page 14-12 clearly only uses a few keyframes to morph a column.
In addition, on page 14-20, is the statement: "You're going to morph the
first column into the other columns. Remember, it will look like the first
column has _become_ the other columns, but it always remains the first
column with only its vertices keyed to other positions." Then, on the
following page, I repeat: "We've said it several times, but we'll say it
again: The bent column is still the first column. Its vertices have been
moved to be the same as column01. If, for example, you were rendering this
and each column had a different material assigned to it, the bending column
would appear with the same material because, although its vertices are
moved, its material is the same."
