      Hi Everyone!
      I was wondering if polygon groups informations are stored somewhere and accessible, for example on a mesh made from single objects merged together. Let's suppose I want to recreate the "Polygon Groups to Objects" command behavior, for example..

      Can someone point me in the right direction ?

      Cheers

        c4d does not store polygons in groups it is just an operation. you could use smc with select
        connected or the pgto itself to recreate the function. on a lower level you would use 
        utils.Neighbour or just the point and polygon data to check the shared point pairs (edges).
