System Information
Operating system: Linux-6.6.1-gentoo-x86_64-AMD_Ryzen_Threadripper_1950X_16-Core_Processor-with-glibc2.37 64 Bits, X11 UI
Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT (radeonsi, navi31, LLVM 16.0.6, DRM 3.54, 6.6.1-gentoo) AMD 4.6 (Core Profile) Mesa 23.3.0-rc4

Blender Version
Broken: version: 4.1.0 Alpha, branch: main, commit date: 2023-11-19 23:36, hash: 41f9f2753a70
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Deformation modifier such as Shrinkwrap modifier can be optionally applied onto a Multiresolution modifier instead of the base mesh.

This is impossible when shape keys are also present on the object. In that case an error popup will appear:
"Modifier cannot be applied to a mesh with shape keys"

This is wrong though. The error should only appear if the modifier is being applied on the base mesh. Applying it on the multires levels should be possible.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Add a Multires modifier.
  2. Subdivide a couple of times.
  3. Add a Simple Deform mdoififier and apply it (Works fine. Deformation is applied onto the multires levels instead of the base mesh).
  4. Add a shape key.
  5. Add another Simple Deform modifier and apply it (Error message instead).

This seems to be quite explicitly forbidden. To me it sounds like deform modifiers could be applied to a shape key, but not sure about implementation details this would involve. @ideasman42 What do you think?

@iss @PratikPB2123 Ok that's great. I'll remove it from this bug report then (also to avoid confusion)

The report is mainly about applying on multires levels anyway.
