Random selection

[Jacobborsting]

Here is a python script to do that:


import maya.cmds as mc
import random

sl = mc.ls(tr=1)
size = len(sl)
procent = .5 # 0 to 1

for o in range(size*(1-procent)):
index = random.randrange(0,(len(sl)-1))
sl.pop(index)

mc.select (sl)
print 'There are %s objects in the selection out of a total of %s' % (len(sl),size)


edit: the indentation seems to get messed up in the post.

Thank you! I've never used Python but I'll reed documentation.
