Hey!

I'm trying to get my script to list the sets that I have in the scene. In fact, I don´t want to get all the sets that exist in the scene but those that show up in the Outliner when the option "DAG Objects Only" is ticked.

In the outliner those sets are shown like this:

I've tried to use the following commands:

ls -sets

and

listSets -as

Both of them return a lot of nodes that I don´t want to use. Is there any way to show only those that are showing up in the Outliner when the option "DAG Objects Only" is ticked ??

And what is the difference between these nodes and the ones that those commands are returning?

Thanks in advance

ls by exact type "object sets" will git u almost there...
jes remove the "deformer sets" from that list

{
string $exactObjectSets[] = `ls -exactType "objectSet"`;
string $deformerObjectSets[] = `listSets -type 2`;
string $objectSetList[] = stringArrayRemove ( $deformerObjectSets, $exactObjectSets );
print $objectSetList;
}
