Returns

Promise<void>

A promise that resolves once the selection has been copied.

---

cut()

cut(): Promise<void>

Cuts the current selection to the clipboard.

Pastes the clipboard content at the specified position.

Parameters

Returns

Promise<void>

A promise that resolves once the change has been applied to the model. Inside a transaction, the promise resolves right away and the change is applied when the transaction commits.
