I am wondering how you can change the cursor position in draft.js after having done an text insertion on key command. Therefore I am currently using _handleKeyCommand(cmd)
to insert a custom text block whenever the user presses a specific button. Next I tried the following:
currentState = this.state.editorState;
var selectionState = this.state.editorState.getSelection().getStartKey();
this.setState({editorState: EditorState.forceSelection(currentState, selectionState)});
But this keeps crashing with the error message
TypeError: selection.getHasFocus is not a function
although I imported SelectionState
. So how do I properly change the cursor position (preferably to the position before the insertion) and what am I doing wrong here?
var selectionState = this.state.editorState.getSelection().getStartKey();
should be var selectionState = this.state.editorState.getSelection()
