Is it possible to add a tag to an object my make it invisible in the Object Manager?
For example, may I add a Tcoffeeexpression tag to an object but hide that tag?

As far as I know.
The only way to hide a tag with Coffee is to do it in a tag plugin like this: myTag::DisplayAllowed() { return FALSE; }

Thank you Scott.
I already knew that one and I already used it in a tag that I created for one of my plugins.
But what I need is to hide a COFFEE tag.
I know that some tags are invisible by default. Could that be a bit that is set in the container of the tags?

I've never seen anything like that. Not even the C++ SDK.
The only way I can see how to hide a tag like that is to:
-Select the object and assign it to a layer
-Select the tag and assign it to another layer
-Solo the object's layer & lock the tag's layer
This is doable with C++ and Python. But I don't know about with Coffee.
I seem to recall that Coffee had very limited layer support. But that was a while ago and I can't remember.
Probably not what you're wanting. But it's the only way I know how to hide tags at will like that.
Maybe someone else will know a better way.

In C++ you can use the PLUGINFLAG_HIDE in the RegisterTagPlugin-Function.

And the method mentioned by Satara is basically 'permanent' since the tag is either visible or hidden for good when the plugin is registered at startup of C4D.
