I’m building a small script in python that will duplicate an object and place it on its own layer before the main body of the scrip starts modifying the duplicate, so as not to alter the original. I’m trying to build the script so it will automatically hide the original layer with original object, any ideas?

Figured it out, so for those that might want to know here it is

import maya.cmds as mc

mc.setAttr(’layername.visibility’, 0 )
