SplitElementOperation

()Constructor
public function SplitElementOperation(operationState:SelectionState, targetElement:FlowGroupElement)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Creates a SplitElementOperation object. This operation deletes a block selection and then splits the target at absoluteStart. The block selection should not cause target to be deleted. Target is a FlowGroupElement but may not be a LinkElement, TCYElement or SubParagraphGroupElement.

Parameters
