select it with armature.select_set(True)

| Jan 16, 2023 at 12:22 | comment | added | Jack Gordon | OK, thank you. And can I somehow select the armature in Python instead of clicking on it? I'll Google it, but I'm asking here if you know how to do it. I also updated my original question. | |
| Jan 16, 2023 at 12:20 | comment | added | Harry McKenzie♦ | you have to return to object mode and then select the next armature then run the script. | |
| Jan 16, 2023 at 12:16 | comment | added | Jack Gordon | I agree with you. I think I am able to figure out how to move different bones, regardless of whether they are a part of one armature or multiple armatures. However, as I stated in my first comment to your post, I can only modify the head and the tail of one bone. When I try to access the bone in other armatures, I get the key error I mentioned above. I think this has something to do with Edit mode, but I'm not sure. | |
| Jan 16, 2023 at 12:10 | comment | added | Harry McKenzie♦ | But i think you should be knowledgable enough to figure that out. that's just a matter of simple looping, the heavy lifting of your requirement is basically there. It should be a piece of cake for you to figure out the rest :) | |
| Jan 16, 2023 at 12:06 | comment | added | Harry McKenzie♦ | uhm. you asked for one bone. you did not specify exactly what the requirement was. so what exactly do you need? please update your question post. Like is it for alot of armatures with one bone or is it for armatures with many bones? or is it only 1 armature with many bones? please be specific. | |

Thank you for the script. It works for one bone. However, I tried it for multiple bones and it doesn't work. I get an error KeyError: 'bpy_prop_collection[key]: key "Bone" not found' for any other Bone i try to access, even though the names of all of my bones are Bone under different armatures. Do you know why this code doesn't work for multiple bones?
