I am currently removing Material parameters, that have a finish associated to them. I am replacing them with a simple text parameter for scheduling. The rendering will then be controlled by a Finish parameter. Now the trick is to make sure I get all of the families converted to the correct parameters. Magical 'Fix Family' button anyone? Please???
Does anyone have words of wisdom, or suggestions for my process?
