A shape key can be part of only one shape group.

### Scripting Syntax

    SetShapeGroup( InputObj, Name );

### Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
InputObj | String | Shape keys for which we want to set the shape group.
Name | String | Name of the shape group.

### Examples

#### JScript Example

    /*
            This example illustrates how to switch shape groups on a shape key.
    */

    LogMessage(oShapeKey0.ShapeGroupName);
    LogMessage(oShapeKey1.ShapeGroupName);
    // Changing the shape group of the first shape key
    SetShapeGroup(oShapeKey0, "MyShapeGroup");
    // Logs "MyShapeGroup" for the first key and the default for the second.
