ReferenceType Enum

Flags enum that dictates behavior of a ReferencePosition

This API is provided for existing users, but is not recommended for new users.

To use, import via @fluidframework/merge-tree/legacy.

For more information about our API support guarantees, see here.

Signature

export declare enum ReferenceType

Flags

Flag	Alerts	Description
RangeBegin	Beta	Denotes that this reference begins the start of an interval. This is generally not meaningful outside the context of interval collections on SharedString.
RangeEnd	Beta	Denotes that this reference is the end of an interval. This is generally not meaningful outside the context of interval collections on SharedString.
Simple	Beta
SlideOnRemove	Beta	When a segment is marked removed (locally or with ack), this reference will slide to the first valid option of: 1. the start of the next furthest segment 2. the end of the next nearest segment 3. DetachedReferencePosition
StayOnRemove	Beta	When a segment is marked removed (locally or with ack), this reference will remain on that segment.
Tile	Beta	Allows this reference to be located using the searchForMarker API on merge-tree.
Transient	Beta	Specifies that the reference position should never be added to the segment it refers to. This is useful for comparison/iteration purposes
