You need to explain what you're asking a bit better if you want good answers. A screenshot would help.

I want to simulate something like a button press; in this case, the perfume spray's button (I separated the button as a png file). I tried to do it with the mesh warp tool. But since the mesh warp allows us only to warp an object only on X and Y axes, I can't animate the squeeze with that tool. So, is there a way to do that task?

I can't understand why you can't just move the button down by animating its Y position.

No I don't want a 'button going down' movement. What I need is, a squeezing on the middle of the can's top.

You're still not explaining yourself very well. Why can't you just move the pins in the mesh downward?

Are you working in 2D or 3D?
