not a question per se, a word of warning if you were hoping to finally learn how to select objects with a textual command… ; )

[Peter Varga]

The method described for selecting objects (concluding at around 7:30) doesn’t seem to work, in 2.80 that is… I assume due to the Python version update…

>>> bpy.data.objects[‘Cube’].select

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File “<blender_console>”, line 1, in <module>

AttributeError: ‘Object’ object has no attribute ‘select’

some additional info…

Selecting object by name in 2.8 (StackExchange)

so, instead of the “direct” way, you need to use:

select_get() and select_set()… mind the use of round brackets! : )
