CKEditor 5 Text Selection Plugin
================================

[](#ckeditor-5-text-selection-plugin)

A plugin that makes the editor keep its text selection when switching between WYSIWYG and Source mode, and scrolls the selection into the viewport.

Inspired by the [CKEditor Text Selection plugin](https://ckeditor.com/cke4/addon/textselection).

This plugin also works with the [CKEditor 5 CodeMirror Source Editing](https://github.com/cdubz/ckeditor5-source-editing-codemirror) plugin.

Demo
----

[](#demo)

Open `demo/index.html` in a browser to try the plugin with CKEditor 5 loaded from CDN. Select text, toggle **Source** mode, and see the selection preserved.

Building
--------

[](#building)

The webpack build uses the CKEditor 5 **DLL Reference Plugin** to integrate with Drupal's CKEditor 5 DLL system. Instead of bundling CKEditor 5 core modules, the built file delegates to `CKEditor5.dll` at runtime — the shared library that Drupal core provides on every page with a CKEditor 5 instance.

The DLL manifest (`ckeditor5-dll.manifest.json`) is sourced from the `ckeditor5`npm package which is included as a dev dependency.

```
npm install
npm run build        # production (minified)
npm run build:dev    # development (unminified)
npm run watch        # watch mode
```
