      I am currently developing a plugin that requires automated management of SubTool folders. While I can successfully create and manipulate folder contents, I have identified a critical limitation in both the ZScript and Python APIs: there are no native commands to rename or delete existing SubTool folders.

      Could you please consider exposing Rename and Delete functions for SubTool folders in the next API update? Having programmatic control over these actions would significantly improve the workflow for organizational plugins and pipeline automation.

      Thank you for your time and for your continued work on the ZBrush API.

        Hello,

        Following my request for SubTool folder management, I would like to suggest two additional features to improve pipeline automation:

        Masking Data Access: Please provide read/write access to SubTool masking data.

        Layer Manipulation: Please add API support for managing SubTool layers.

        Thank you for your consideration.
