# SelectionResult

> _Since v0.4.2_

Unified selection result returned by getSelection().
Provides a consistent interface regardless of selection mode.

#### Example

```ts
const selection = plugin.getSelection();
if (selection.ranges.length > 0) {
  const firstRange = selection.ranges[0];
  console.log(`Selected from (${firstRange.from.row}, ${firstRange.from.col}) to (${firstRange.to.row}, ${firstRange.to.col})`);
}
```
