Attributes
Attribute | Type | Description |
canCacheFrameOffset |
boolean |
Frame Offset cache can be used just during calling nsEditor::EndPlaceHolderTransaction. EndPlaceHolderTransaction will give rise to reflow/refreshing view/scroll, and call times of nsTextFrame::GetPointFromOffset whose return value is to be cached. See bug 35296 and bug 199412 Native code only! |
interlinePosition |
boolean | |
type |
short |
Returns the type of the selection (see nsISelectionController for available constants). Read only. |

Methods
addSelectionListener()
void addSelectionListener( in nsISelectionListener newListener );
Parameters
newListener
endBatchChanges()
Will resume User Interface updates after a previous call to startBatchChanges()
.
void endBatchChanges();
Parameters
None.
getCachedFrameOffset
Returns cached value for nsTextFrame::GetPointFromOffset.
void getCachedFrameOffset( in nsIFrame aFrame, in PRInt32 inOffset, in nsPointRef aPoint );
Parameters
aFrame
inOffset
aPoint
getEnumerator()
nsIEnumerator getEnumerator();
Parameters
None.
Return value
getFrameSelection
nsFrameSelection getFrameSelection();
Parameters
None.
Return value
A reference to the frame selection associated with this selection.
GetRangesForInterval()
Return array of ranges intersecting with the given DOM interval.
void GetRangesForInterval( in nsIDOMNode beginNode, in PRInt32 beginOffset, in nsIDOMNode endNode, in PRInt32 endOffset, in PRBool allowAdjacent, out PRUint32 resultCount, [retval, array, size_is(resultCount)] out nsIDOMRange results );
Parameters
beginNode
beginOffset
endNode
endOffset
- These four parameters represent the range to compare against the selection.
allowAdjacent
- Specifies whether the returned ranges are allowed to touch the input range rather than merely overlapping it.
resultCount
- Returns the number of ranges that overlap (or touch) the input range.
results
- Returns the ranges that overlap (or touch) the input range.
GetRangesForIntervalCOMArray
Obsolete since Gecko 12.0 (Firefox 12.0 / Thunderbird 12.0 / SeaMonkey 2.9)
This feature is obsolete. Although it may still work in some browsers, its use is discouraged since it could be removed at any time. Try to avoid using it.
This method became obsolete in Gecko 12.0 (Firefox 12.0 / Thunderbird 12.0 / SeaMonkey 2.9). Use GetRangesForIntervalArray()
instead.
void GetRangesForIntervalCOMArray( in nsIDOMNode beginNode, in PRInt32 beginOffset, in nsIDOMNode endNode, in PRInt32 endOffset, in PRBool allowAdjacent, in RangeArray results );
Parameters
beginNode
beginOffset
endNode
endOffset
- These four parameters represent the range to compare against the selection.
allowAdjacent
- Specifies whether the returned ranges are allowed to touch the input range rather than merely overlapping it.
results
- Returns the ranges that overlap (or touch) the input range.
GetRangesForIntervalArray
void GetRangesForIntervalArray( in nsINode beginNode, in PRInt32 beginoffset, in nsINode endNode, in PRInt32 endOffset, in boolean allowAdjacent, in RangeArray results );
Parameters
beginNode
beginOffset
endNode
endOffset
- These four parameters represent the range to compare against the selection.
allowAdjacent
- Specifies whether the returned ranges are allowed to touch the input range rather than merely overlapping it.
results
- Returns the ranges that overlap (or touch) the input range.
getTableSelectionType()
Test if supplied range points to a single table element.
long getTableSelectionType( in nsIDOMRange range );
Parameters
range
Return value
One of TABLESELECTION_*
constants. "None" means a table element is not selected.
removeSelectionListener()
void removeSelectionListener( in nsISelectionListener listenerToRemove );
Parameters
listenerToRemove
scrollIntoView()
Requires Gecko 1.9 (Firefox 3)Scrolls a region of the selection, so that it is visible in the scrolled view.
void scrollIntoView( in short aRegion, in boolean aIsSynchronous, in short aVPercent, in short aHPercent );
Parameters
aRegion
- The region inside the selection to scroll into view (see selection region constants defined in
nsISelectionController
). aIsSynchronous
- When
true
, scrolls the selection into view before returning. Iffalse
, posts a request which is processed at some point after the method returns. aVPercent
- How to align the frame vertically. A value of 0 means the frame's upper edge is aligned with the top edge of the visible area. A value of 100 means the frame's bottom edge is aligned with the bottom edge of the visible area. For values in between, the point "aVPercent" down the frame is placed at the point "aVPercent" down the visible area. A value of 50 centers the frame vertically. A value of -1 means move the frame the minimum amount necessary in order for the entire frame to be visible vertically (if possible).
aHPercent
- How to align the frame horizontally. A value of 0 means the frame's left edge is aligned with the left edge of the visible area. A value of 100 means the frame's right edge is aligned with the right edge of the visible area. For values in between, the point "aHPercent" across the frame is placed at the point "aHPercent" across the visible area. A value of 50 centers the frame horizontally . A value of -1 means move the frame the minimum amount necessary in order for the entire frame to be visible horizontally (if possible).
setAncestorLimiter
void setAncestorLimiter( in nsIContent aContent );
Parameters
aContent
setPresShell
Internal utility method to set the pres shell on a newly created selection.
void setPresShell( in nsIPresShell aPresShell );
Parameters
aPresShell
setTextRangeStyle
Set the painting style for the range. The range must be a range in the selection. The textRangeStyle will be used by text frame when it is painting the selection.
void setTextRangeStyle( in nsIDOMRange range, in constTextRangeStyleRef textRangeStyle );
Parameters
range
textRangeStyle
startBatchChanges()
Will stop User Interface updates while multiple selection methods are called. Call endBatchChanges()
to resume User Interface updates.
void startBatchChanges();
Parameters
None.
toStringWithFormat()
wstring toStringWithFormat( in string formatType, in unsigned long flags, in PRInt32 wrapColumn );
Parameters
formatType
flags
wrapColumn
