Select multiple

Thanks Anton. I’m at a similar state. Here is my code to prompt you to select the multiple objects. Like yours, the output includes the ACAD entities, but I don’t know how to change the ACAD entities to Dynamo objects.

import sys
import clr

# Add Assemblies for AutoCAD and Civil3D
clr.AddReference('AcMgd')
clr.AddReference('AcCoreMgd')
clr.AddReference('AcDbMgd')
clr.AddReference('AecBaseMgd')
clr.AddReference('AecPropDataMgd')
clr.AddReference('AeccDbMgd')

		with adoc.Database as db:
			with db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction() as t:

				acSSPrompt = ed.GetSelection()
	
				if acSSPrompt.Status == PromptStatus.OK:
					acSSet = acSSPrompt.Value
					for s in acSSet:
						if s:
							obj = t.GetObject(s.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead)
							output.append(obj)

				t.Commit()
	return output	

OUT = select_objects()
