How does text selection work in compose? I am trying to make a thing to enable selection of an area that can be used in combination with a Canvas to enable selecting drawn elements. Has anyone done this or similar?

“How does it work” is a complex question that can probably only be answered by reading the code :sweat_smile: There aren’t public APIs for controlling `SelectionContainer` much at this time unfortunately. 

Mainly just how everything comes together to make selection work. <https://github.com/androidx/androidx/tree/androidx-main/compose/foundation/foundation/src/commonMain/kotlin/androidx/compose/foundation/text/selection|here> seems to be everything related to text selection
