Python - Reduce Object Manager Tree

#1

how to ungroup the null object which has only one child in object manager tree. I have a scene imported from other software, and the object manager tree has many redundant null objects. how do I write a python script to reduce OM

#2

Select all null objects with the same name. Right-click -> Delete Without Children

#3

I happen to have a fitting script on my Patreon; have a look whether this is what you need:

`import c4d
from c4d import gui

def removeempty(obj):
if not obj:
return
removeempty(obj.GetDown())
removeempty(obj.GetNext())
if not obj.GetDown():
if obj.GetType()== c4d.Onull:
if not obj.GetFirstTag():
obj.Remove()

def main():
obj = doc.GetFirstObject()
removeempty(obj)
c4d.EventAdd()

if name==‘main’:
main()`

perhaps you can change this to your needs
