No parameter.
This command is intended to be bound to a mouse input. It is generally used by the macro-command which is bound to the drag appEvent in XMLmind XML Editor - Configuration and Deployment. See example.
If the mouse is clicked anywhere inside the node or text selection, this command returns a string representation of the selection. Otherwise this command first selects the element clicked upon and then returns a string representation of the newly selected element.
The returned string may be quickly described as follows:
It the text selection consists only in plain text, this command returns this plain text.
If the node selection consists only in a single element, this command returns an XML representation of this element. This XML representation always starts with <?xml version="1.0"?>.
Otherwise, this command returns an XML representation of the node range in the format of the clipboard (that is, starting with <?xml version="1.0"?> and using a <ns:clipboard xmlns:ns="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/namespace/clipboard"> wrapper element).
