Getting text selection

[superxiao]

I'm using the snippet package and it works great. I wonder whether there is a way to expose text selection events inside the pdf, with selected text included using this package? Or it's necessary to use a lower-level package such as @embedpdf/engines to build custom UI in order to have text selection event?

yes course!

I got selected text from this:
const api = await registryRef?.value?.getPlugin(SELECTION_PLUGIN_ID)?.provides?.()
if (!api) return
const selectedTextObject = api.getSelectedText?.()
