Select by material

Or if you want to have same wirecolor but different from others objects
then use next code

for m in scenematerials do
(
	(refs.dependentNodes m).wirecolor = random black white
)

Simple and efficient...

Very very Thanks..

But what's the "refs.dependentNodes" ?

More infos about *Dependencies* you can find on this page

Thank you again

I understand that you want to change wirecolor to the objects that
share same materijal. If i'm wright then use this

for m in scenematerials do
(
	local objArr = refs.dependentNodes m
	for o in objArr do o.wirecolor = random black white
)

Try to modify this because i plan to use it in the next update of
Select Objects By BitmapTex script.

fn getGrandParent obj = (while obj.parent != undefined do obj = obj.parent)
if selection.count == 0 then (messageBox "You must select at least one object!" title:"Warning" beep:false) else
(
local obj = selection[1]
if obj.material == undefined then (messageBox "This object don't have assigned material!" title:"Warning" beep:false) else
(
local mat = obj.material
local objArr = refs.dependentNodes mat
if objArr.count == 1 then (messageBox "Material of this object is unique!" title:"Warning" beep:false) else
(
for itm in objArr do
(
if (isGroupMember itm == true and isOpenGroupMember itm == false) do
(
local grandParent = getGrandParent itm
try (setGroupOpen (getGrandParentName itm) true) catch()
)
) ; select objArr
)
)
)

Hey Barigazy, thanks for the help, but could not get in my need, see if you can help me ...

I am writing a tool and want to put color in random objects in the scene by the material objects with the same material have the same color ... see if I'm in a right way... lol

fn matWire =
(
matObj = #()

for obj in objects do (
m = obj.material
appendIfUnique matObj m
)

for obj in objects do(
for x = 1 to matObj.count do(
if matObj[x] == obj.material then(
obj.wirecolor = random black white
)
)
)
)

Thanks

Use tags < code>your code here .. < /code> when you post next time.
It's easyer to read, like this

fn matWire =
(
	local matObj = #()
	for obj in objects do 
	(
		m = obj.material
		appendIfUnique matObj m
	)
	for obj in objects do
	(
		for x = 1 to matObj.count do
		(
			if matObj[x] == obj.material then
			(
				obj.wirecolor = random black white
			)
		)
	)
)
