That indeed would work as a short-term solution, but when I need to set
up animation systems that have to work for multiple productions
throughout years, I need clean data at the base, otherwise everything
will fall apart in a future production...
Thanks for the suggestion anyways!

I know it's not quite the same as removing them but you could disable
the parameters influence in the clip source?

Yep:
//Creates new action source from input source, excluding a defined
parameter list
function ooRecreateSource(oSource, aBadParams){
//Create new action source
var oModel = oSource.Model;
var oNewSource = oModel.AddActionSource(oSource.Name + "_temp");
//Test all source items with bad parameters list
var eSourceItems = new Enumerator(oSource.SourceItems);
while(!eSourceItems.atEnd()){
var oFound = false;
for(var i=0; i<aBadParams.length ; i++){
if(eSourceItems.item().Target == aBadParams[i]){
oFound = true;
}
}
//Copy current source item to new source if not present in bad
parameter list
if(!oFound){
oNewSource.AddSourceItem(eSourceItems.item().Target,
eSourceItems.item().Source);
}
eSourceItems.moveNext();
}
return oNewSource;
}
However, recreating a whole mixer this way is anything but fun, my
last
week's script is something like a 400 lines, and it still misses out
things I don't need to copy for our current production scenario...
Cheers!
