Oh, that's brilliant, thanks! Wasn't aware of 'try'.. so this seems to
work:
import maya.cmds as cmd
import pymel.core as pm
list = pm.ls(sl=1)
for obj in list:
obj = pm.PyNode(obj)
try:
print obj.getShape()
except:
pm.warning('no shape!')
If anyone knows why hasattr(obj,'getShape') does't work, please let me know!
