Viktoras: I want to remove the intermediate shape nodes, but only if the mesh is not being deformed by any deformer in which case those are needed (meshNameShapeOrig, sometimes meshNameShapeDeformed when referenced). These intermediate shapes are sometimes retained on the mesh when duplicating or delete history to get rid of deformers. They cause some issues in our pipeline....
Ofer: The m.listHistory(type='deformer') does not work for me, tried it with a combination of various arguments. Tried on both the shapes and the mesh transform. Am I missing something?
