Constructors
Selection(SnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity) |
Instantiates a new Selection with a zero-width extent at the provided insertion point. |
Selection(SnapshotPoint, SnapshotPoint, SnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity) |
Instantiates a new Selection. |
Selection(SnapshotPoint, SnapshotPoint) |
Instantiates a new Selection with the given anchor and active points, and the insertion point is located at the active point. |
Selection(SnapshotSpan, Boolean) |
Instantiates a new Selection with the given extent. Anchor and active points are defined by isReversed, and the insertion point is located at the active point. |
Selection(VirtualSnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity) |
Instantiates a new Selection with a zero-width extent at the provided insertion point. |
Selection(VirtualSnapshotPoint, VirtualSnapshotPoint, VirtualSnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity) |
Instantiates a new Selection. |
Selection(VirtualSnapshotPoint, VirtualSnapshotPoint) |
Instantiates a new Selection with the given anchor and active points, and the insertion point is located at the active point. |
Selection(VirtualSnapshotSpan, Boolean) |
Instantiates a new Selection with the given extent. Anchor and active points are defined by isReversed, and the insertion point is located at the active point. |
Fields
Invalid |
A static instance of a selection that is invalid and can be used to check for instantiation. |
Properties
ActivePoint |
Gets the location of the movable selection endpoint, meaning if a user were to hold shift and click, this point would be changed to the location of the click. If this is an empty selection, this will be at the InsertionPoint. |
AnchorPoint |
Gets the location of the fixed selection endpoint, meaning if a user were to hold shift and click, this point would remain where it is. If this is an empty selection, this will be at the InsertionPoint. |
End |
Returns the larger of ActivePoint and AnchorPoint. |
Extent | |
InsertionPoint |
Gets the location where a caret should be rendered and edits performed. |
InsertionPointAffinity |
Gets the affinity of the insertion point. This is used in places like word-wrap where one buffer position can represent both the end of one line and the beginning of the next. |
IsEmpty |
True if AnchorPoint equals ActivePoint. False otherwise. |
IsReversed |
True if AnchorPoint is later in the document than ActivePoint. False otherwise. |
IsValid |
Gets whether this selection contains meaningful data. |
Start |
Returns the smaller of ActivePoint and AnchorPoint. |
