Hi Alan,
I'm getting fcurves and the _expression_ link fcurves,
Yeah I understand, it could be expected I'd get both, but the _expression_ link curve is more like a PPG curve, a modifier, not an animation curve, so for example if you run remove all animation, fcurves, it deletes those to.
As I mentioned I just make our own remove animation tool, but that one seemed odd to me.

Hi Graham,

You mean you're getting expressions and not just curves?

I would have expected you to get curves, actually now I think about it
both would be expected.
The link is one of the _expression_ functions available and it looks up
an FCurve for relative
values. You probably don't need to do anything with the _expression_ in
most cases though.

Cheers,

Alan.
