# Python Tag

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page covers the **Python tag** in **Cinema 4D**. It runs custom Python code on every scene evaluation directly on an object — the scripting counterpart to XPresso for constraints, automation and tools that the built-in tags don't offer.

Python code can transferred as a Generator, Node or as a tag in Cinema 4D.
