### documentHasSelection

Check whether the current document has a selection. This includes focus in input fields, textareas, and general rich-text selection.

_Parameters_

-   _doc_ `Document`: The document to check.

_Returns_

-   `boolean`: True if there is selection, false if not.

### documentHasTextSelection

Check whether the current document has selected text. This applies to ranges of text in the document, and not selection inside `<input>` and `<textarea>` elements.

_Parameters_

-   _doc_ `Document`: The document to check.

_Returns_

-   `boolean`: True if there is selection, false if not.

### documentHasUncollapsedSelection

_Parameters_

-   _doc_ `Document`: The document to check.

_Returns_

-   `File[]`: An array containing all files.
