Property Detail

absoluteEnd | property

`absoluteEnd:int`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The absolute end point of the range of text to which this operation is applied.

Implementation
`public function get absoluteEnd():int`
`public function set absoluteEnd(value:int):void`

absoluteStart | property |

`absoluteStart:int`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The absolute start point of the range of text to which this operation is applied.

Implementation
`public function get absoluteStart():int`
`public function set absoluteStart(value:int):void`

originalSelectionState | property |

`originalSelectionState:SelectionState`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The selection state at the start of the operation.

Implementation
`public function get originalSelectionState():SelectionState`
`public function set originalSelectionState(value:SelectionState):void`
Constructor Detail

FlowTextOperation | () | Constructor

`public function FlowTextOperation(operationState:SelectionState)`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Creates the FlowTextOperation object.

Parameters

| `operationState:SelectionState` — Specifies the relevant selection. If relevant to the operation, the `operationState` describes the text range to which this operation applies. Otherwise, `operationState` is used to save the current selection state so that it can be restored when the operation is undone.

Method Detail

redo | () | method

`override public function redo():SelectionState`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Re-executes the operation.

This method must be overridden in derived classes. The base class method does nothing. You should not call `redo()` directly. The edit manager calls the method when it re-executes the operation.

Returns

| `SelectionState` — The SelectionState object passed to the operation when it was performed. This SelectionState object can be the current selection or a selection created specifically for the operation.
