Drive semi-automatics with automatic driver’s license?

I think I’ll put this in here, should be the most suitable section. To the topic: A neighbor of us wants to make a new attempt to make the car driver’s license and consider having to train on automatic vehicles based on a tip from her father. Therefore, to my knowledge, she should drive only automatic vehicles later. But how does this work with automated gears (half-automatic)? These can be operated automatically or you can drive them automatically. switch manually (by manually triggering the switching process with “+” or “-“), you just don’t have to couple any more, this is still done automatically (there is no clutch pedal). We were a bit at a loss now whether you can drive semi-automatics with a car driver license limited to automatic vehicles (they are somehow automatic and somehow also not…) or whether the driving licence only refers to full automatics (converter gearboxes). Or semi-automatics only in the automatic mode (so not in manual mode, how did you want to control it?) or or or. Does anyone else know? I told her not to take the lead on automatic vehicles, because you restrict yourself quite strongly for later and the advantage of automatics in driving school lasts at most a few hours (namely the “train phase” for the conventional coupling and switching), the disadvantage of being allowed to drive only automatic vehicles, but possibly for a lifetime. question (see above) is still unresolved in the room. Ciao!
