Hello there I have done what you want. Just pass the argument true if you want to invert selection and false if you want selection.


proc string[] FilteredSelection(int $isInvert)
{
string $currSel[]=`ls -sl`;
string $filtered[];
string $current;
int $total=0;

for($current in $currSel)
{
//What layer does this bject belong to?
string $whichLayer = `objectLayer($current)` ;

//Is inverted selection toggled
if($isInvert == false)
{
if($whichLayer=="defaultLayer" || `getAttr ($whichLayer+".visibility")`==true)
$filtered[$total++]=$current;
else
continue;
}
else
{
if($whichLayer=="defaultLayer" || `getAttr ($whichLayer+".visibility")`==true)
continue;
else
$filtered[$total++]=$current;
}
}

return $filtered;
}

FilteredSelection(false);


Thanx
