text.selectionStart
Property; a zero-based integer that specifies the beginning of a text subselection. You can use this property with text.selectionEnd to select a range of characters. Characters up to, but not including, text.selectionEnd are selected. See text.selectionEnd.
text.selectionEnd is equal to text.selectionStart. text.selectionStart is set to a value greater than text.selectionEnd, text.selectionEnd is set to text.selectionStart, and no text is selected.The following example sets the start of the text subselection to the sixth character:
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().layers[0].frames[0].elements[0].selectionStart = 5;
The following example selects the characters "Barbara" from a text field that contains the text "My name is Barbara" and formats them as bold and green:
fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].selectionStart = 11;
fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].selectionEnd = 18;
var s = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].selectionStart;
var e = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].selectionEnd;
fl.getDocumentDOM().setElementTextAttr('bold', true, s, e);
fl.getDocumentDOM().setElementTextAttr("fillColor", "#00ff00", s, e);
