Get tags in a view with a certain value

1

I placed all tags automaticly, but i want to move and delete some.
Now there are a lot of tags so it would be easy if i could select them based on there value.

But tags are funny things… I can’t get it to work.

and there is something strange…if i get all my generic model objects in the project. And i get all the generic models that are tagged and i compare the lists it only finds one entry.

would be nice if it just selected all the tags in the active view - find it’s host… get the parameter of the host and use that bool to select the right tags…

the thing i am trying is getting everything from the project making it slow.

oke i can get it to work if i use list.contains instead of ==

is there a way to make this my active selection or can i only save it as a selection

This doesn’t work, because in my approach it will also get the tags that are on other views but on the same element…

I need the tags from only this view…

i hit a dead end…

Use Select.ByCategoryAndView node of Archilab package.

thanks Alban, that was a big help

is there a way to set your selection as an active selection, so you don’t have to save it as a selection set
