selectWordEdge abstract method

void selectWordEdge({
  1. required SelectionChangedCause cause,
})

Move the selection to the beginning or end of a word.

This method is mainly used to translate user inputs in global positions into a TextSelection. When used in conjunction with a EditableText, the selection change is fed back into TextEditingController.selection.

If you have a TextEditingController, it's generally easier to programmatically manipulate its value or selection directly.

Implementation

void selectWordEdge({required SelectionChangedCause cause});
