The way that the Emboss_width Morphing Parameter has been defined leads to the following result: Morphing the above parameter by 1 mm moves both edges of the emboss to the opposite sides resulting to a movement of 2 mm. To overcome this problem a calculation can be added between the Design Variable and the Morphing Parameter.task15.png
