Is this class not finished yet ? GetSelection() does not work. And what about a SetSelection() function ?

Ah, Is it part of the SelectionTag Class ? Its not in the Sdk.
I'd rather need SetBaseSelect() or something.
And something like

MyPolygonObject.SetPolygonSelection(MyBaseSelectObject)

Thanks, nux

to set the selection you can manipulate the BaseSelect which you get by calling GetBaseSelect()

Here's a simple example using GetBaseSelect() just in case anyone needs it.

  
import c4d  
from c4d import gui  
  
def main() :  
 obj = doc.GetFirstObject()  
 tag = obj.GetFirstTag() # make sure the selection tag is the first one in the list of tags  
 polycountOfObject = obj.GetPolygonCount()#How many polygons does the object have in total?  
 selected = tag.GetBaseSelect()#Gets the selected polygons on the object  
 countSelected = selected.GetCount()#how many polygons are selected?  
 print "total polys in object = ", polycountOfObject  
 print "total of selected polys = ", countSelected  
  
#Loop through the polys to get the selected one's index numbers  
  
 for i in range(polycountOfObject) :  
  if selected.IsSelected(i) :  
print i  
  
if __name__=='__main__':  
  main()

Btw, you don't need to declare i before the for-loop.
And it was about setting selection, not getting.

Works perfect, Satara ! But i'd rather use SetSelection(BaseSelectObject). Unfortunately it's not possible

The methods BaseSelect.CopyTo and BaseSelect.GetClone might help you here.
