Select all by object, tag, or layer type.

Is there a way to access the select all by object, tag, or layer with python. You can get to this in C4D in the object manager, enable filters and right clicking on an object, tag, or layer you will get a contextual menu with select all, and deselect all based on the item type your right clicked on. I've tried using the script log, but nothing is recorded.

Hello,

the functionality you mention is an internal part of the object manager and is not exposed through the Python API as an independent command. So to do the same as the object manger you have to implement that functionality yourself. Martin already gave you a link to another thread discussing something similar.

Best wishes,
