I have a copy and paste routine written in Autolisp for copying and then a paste routine written in maxscript. I also wrote other maxscripts that that does stuff (mainly my text object maniulator code) to the pasted objects.
The issue is that when I need to paste objects that I need to run the addtional script too in Max I have to do it in a new project, then export then merge into the actual project.
Is there any way code wise to to get a marker of the last entity in the drawing, then make a selection set of all entities that follow ?
The paste code I wrote simply imports a specific Autocad file name that Autocad has written.
it all works fine, I just wish Max highlighted all the objects after insertion.
Thanks for reading.

The easiest way is to get objects.count before the import and then get all the new nodes (in the range objects[previous count + 1] to objects[objects.count]; metioned several times on this forum if you need some further reference).
