- * `DocumentSelection` is a special selection which is used as the
- * {@link module:engine/model/document~Document#selection document's selection}.
- * There can be only one instance of `DocumentSelection` per document.
- *
- * Document selection can only be changed by using the {@link module:engine/model/writer~Writer} instance
- * inside the {@link module:engine/model/model~Model#change `change()`} block, as it provides a secure way to modify model.
- *
- * `DocumentSelection` is automatically updated upon changes in the {@link module:engine/model/document~Document document}
- * to always contain valid ranges. Its attributes are inherited from the text unless set explicitly.
- *
- * Differences between {@link module:engine/model/selection~Selection} and `DocumentSelection` are:
- * * there is always a range in `DocumentSelection` - even if no ranges were added there is a "default range"
- * present in the selection,
- * * ranges added to this selection updates automatically when the document changes,
- * * attributes of `DocumentSelection` are updated automatically according to selection ranges.
- *
- * Since `DocumentSelection` uses {@link module:engine/model/liverange~LiveRange live ranges}
- * and is updated when {@link module:engine/model/document~Document document}
- * changes, it cannot be set on {@link module:engine/model/node~Node nodes}
- * that are inside {@link module:engine/model/documentfragment~DocumentFragment document fragment}.
- * If you need to represent a selection in document fragment,
- * use {@link module:engine/model/selection~Selection Selection class} instead.
