Is there a way to enable the python tag only, when the object that the tag sits on, is selected?

Hi hypoly,

in the Tags' code, you can just check if the object is selected. And if it is, you can execute the rest of the code.

import c4d  
  
def main() :  
  og = op.GetOrigin()  
  if not og.GetBit(c4d.BIT_ACTIVE) :  
      return  
  
  # Rest of the code

Note that the rest of the code is also evaluated if the object is one of multiple selected objects. If you want to ensure it is the only active object, you can do:

import c4d  
  
def main() :  
  og = op.GetOrigin()  
  if og != doc.GetActiveObject() :  
      return  
  
  # Rest of the code

Cheers,
Niklas
