Hey,

Quick question how do I run a script on a object without having to select the object? Already tried FindObject("objectname"); but I dont think I used it right. Another question.
After the script selects the object I want it to 'Restore Selection' through a 'Edge Selection Tag'. Hope someone can help me.

Welcome to the forums,

Is there a reason you are asking for COFFEE help rather than Python?
You will hit road blocks very quickly using COFFEE.
Python is a much better supported language in C4D if you are using R17.

Hello and welcome,

I guess your question was already answered on the C4D Cafe. For the future, please avoid threads across multiple forums so that nobody invests time in answering solved issues.

best wishes,
Sebastian
