Thanks,<div><br></div><div>would it be possible that the bpy.ops.wm.collada_import method could select all imported objects ?</div><div>for instance if I have a car plus 4 wheels in the file "atrv257.dae", and I do:</div>
<div>#</div><div><div>bpy.ops.wm.collada_import(filepath="/home/pierrick/atrv257.dae")</div><div>print(bpy.context.selected_objects)</div></div>
<div>#</div><div>the output is only:</div><div>[bpy.data.objects["Wheel_1"]]</div><div><br></div><div>and I would expect to have something like:</div><div><div>bpy.ops.wm.link_append(directory="/home/pierrick/atrv.blend/Object/", link=False, files=[{'name': 'ATRV'}, {'name': 'Wheel.4'}, {'name': 'Wheel.3'}, {'name': 'Wheel.2'}, {'name': 'Wheel.1'}])</div>
<div>print(bpy.context.selected_objects)</div><div>[bpy.data.objects["ATRV.001"], bpy.data.objects["Wheel.4"], bpy.data.objects["Wheel.3"], bpy.data.objects["Wheel.2"], bpy.data.objects["Wheel.1"]]</div>
</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>It would be usefull to have something like "autoselect=True" that we can find in bpy.ops.wm.link_append.</div>

Committed feature so the datablocks are accessible within the list now.<br>
r36869.<br>
<br>
--- from the docs.<br>
# the loaded objects can be accessed from 'data_to' outside of the context<br>

with bpy.data.libraries.load(filepath) as (data_from, data_to):<br>

# now operate directly on the loaded data<br>
for mesh in data_to.meshes:<br>
