ID 137949 - The layer and/or the channels you removed are displayed in node parameters downstream from the Remove node.

User Guide ref

says that then you use a Remove node, "The layer and/or the channels you removed are no longer displayed in node parameters downstream from the Remove node."

 

and this currently fails.

 

1.

Just create a user channel with a ShuffleCopy - use default names and the .nk script will get this line:

 

add_layer {layer1 layer1.red layer1.green layer1.blue layer1.alpha}

 

2.

Then add a Remove node and remove that entire layer

 

3.

Then add a node downstream (e.g. Roto) and note that the layer and channel pulldowns still display the removed layer and channels
