TextSelection class Null safety
A range of text that represents a selection.
Constructors
- TextSelection({required int baseOffset, required int extentOffset, TextAffinity affinity = TextAffinity.downstream, bool isDirectional = false})
-
Creates a text selection.
const
- TextSelection.collapsed({required int offset, TextAffinity affinity = TextAffinity.downstream})
-
Creates a collapsed selection at the given offset.
const
- TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition position)
- Creates a collapsed selection at the given text position.
Properties
- affinity → TextAffinity
-
If the text range is collapsed and has more than one visual location
(e.g., occurs at a line break), which of the two locations to use when
painting the caret.
final
- base → TextPosition
-
The position at which the selection originates.
read-only
- baseOffset → int
-
The offset at which the selection originates.
final
- end → int
-
The next index after the characters in this range.
finalinherited
- extent → TextPosition
-
The position at which the selection terminates.
read-only
- extentOffset → int
-
The offset at which the selection terminates.
final
- hashCode → int
-
The hash code for this object.
read-onlyoverride
- isCollapsed → bool
-
Whether this range is empty (but still potentially placed inside the text).
read-onlyinherited
- isDirectional → bool
-
Whether this selection has disambiguated its base and extent.
final
- isNormalized → bool
-
Whether the start of this range precedes the end.
read-onlyinherited
- isValid → bool
-
Whether this range represents a valid position in the text.
read-onlyinherited
- runtimeType → Type
-
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
read-onlyinherited
- start → int
-
The index of the first character in the range.

Methods
-
copyWith(
{int? baseOffset, int? extentOffset, TextAffinity? affinity, bool? isDirectional}) → TextSelection - Creates a new TextSelection based on the current selection, with the provided parameters overridden.
-
expandTo(
TextPosition position, [bool extentAtIndex = false]) → TextSelection - Returns the smallest TextSelection that this could expand to in order to include the given TextPosition.
-
extendTo(
TextPosition position) → TextSelection - Keeping the selection's TextSelection.baseOffset fixed, pivot the TextSelection.extentOffset to the given TextPosition.
-
noSuchMethod(
Invocation invocation) → dynamic -
Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.
inherited
-
textAfter(
String text) → String -
The text after this range.
inherited
-
textBefore(
String text) → String -
The text before this range.
inherited
-
textInside(
String text) → String -
The text inside this range.
inherited
-
toString(
) → String -
A string representation of this object.

Operators
-
operator ==(
Object other) → bool -
The equality operator.
