Is there a way to delete some of the Parameter Dials of a figure?

Thank you

you can hide them using a python program , I dont know if theres another way  .

ok, I am gonna say it .... I resisted  but ....

What is it you want to do ?     Poser will show a dial if that parameter is defined for the figure unless its hidden .

Deleting Morph Parameter Dials, is a great way to save space in your scene; especially when they are just set to 0(useless.)  And consolidating the ones with values is another way to save space.

A dial is just the visible manifestation of a channel. So the first question is do you want to get rid of the dial or the channel as well? In a Poser library file, each channel has a parameter named 'hidden' which has a value of "1" = hidden, or "0" = displayed. To hide the dial you can change this value either by editing the file in a text editor, or by applying a pose in Poser.

To delete the whole channel, if the file is stored in an uncompressed format you can delete the channels in a text editor, or a cr2 editor such as CR2Builder, or Cr2Editor. If the file is in a compressed format you will have to decompress it first.

To give any more advice I would need to have a better idea of exactly what you are trying to achieve.

Or if yous click on the little triangle, on the right of the morph dial, you'll see the option to Delete an individual morph.
