The Binary option is added into the BlendShape setting in v0.45. It is for users who don't want to display the middle state of the BlendShape. The target value will be automatically rounded off. A BlendShape with the binary setting being active will only have a representative expression like a screenshot.

This feature will become effective when a v0.45-installed application is loaded
