Interface: TextPointCaretSlice<T, D>
lexical.TextPointCaretSlice
A TextPointCaretSlice is a wrapper for a TextPointCaret that carries a signed distance representing the direction and amount of text selected from the given caret. A negative distance means that text before offset is selected, a positive distance means that text after offset is selected. The offset+distance pair is not affected in any way by the direction of the caret.
The selected string content can be computed as such (see also $getTextSliceContent):
slice.origin.getTextContent().slice(
Math.min(slice.offset, slice.offset + slice.distance),
Math.max(slice.offset, slice.offset + slice.distance),
)
