## Anatomy
Import all parts and piece them together.
```jsx
import * as Selection from 'selection-popover'
export default () => (
)
```
## API Reference
### Root
Contains all the parts of a selection.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| -------------- | ------------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `defaultOpen` | `boolean` | - | The open state of the hover card when it is initially rendered. Use when you do not need to control its open state. |
| `open` | `boolean` | - | The controlled open state of the popover. Must be used in conjunction with `onOpenChange`. |
| `onOpenChange` | `(open: boolean) => void` | - | Event handler called when the open state of the popover changes. |
| `whileSelect` | `boolean` | `false` | When `true`, the popover will open while the text is selected, otherwise only when the mouse up. |
| `disabled` | `boolean` | `false` | When true, the popover won't open when text is selected. |
| `openDelay` | `number` | `0` | The duration from when release the mouse until the content opens. In `whileSelect` is when you start the selection. |
| `closeDelay` | `number` | `0` | The duration from when you click outside of the content until the content closes. |
### Trigger
The area that opens the popover. Wrap it around the target you want the popover to open when a text is selected.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| --------- | --------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `asChild` | `boolean` | `false` | Change the component to the HTML tag or custom component of the only child. This will merge the original component props with the props of the supplied element/component and change the underlying DOM node. |
### Portal
When used, portals the content part into the `body`.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| ------------ | ------------- | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `forceMount` | `boolean` | - | Used to force mounting when more control is needed. Useful when controlling animation with React animation libraries. If used on this part, it will be inherited by `Selection.Content`. |
| `container` | `HTMLElement` | `document.body` | Specify a container element to portal the content into. |
### Content
The component that pops out when a text is selected.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `asChild` | `boolean` | false | Change the component to the HTML tag or custom component of the only child. This will merge the original component props with the props of the supplied element/component and change the underlying DOM node. |
| `forceMount` | `boolean` | - | Used to force mounting when more control is needed. Useful when controlling animation with React animation libraries. It inherits from `Selection.Portal`. |
| `side` | `"top" \| "right" \| "bottom" \| "left"` | `top` | The preferred side of the selection to render against when open. Will be reversed when collisions occur and `avoidCollisions` is enabled. |
| `sideOffset` | `number` | `0` | The distance in pixels from the selection. |
| `align` | `"start" \| "center" \| "end"` | `center` | The preferred alignment against the selection. May change when collisions occur. |
| `alignOffset` | `number` | `0` | An offset in pixels from the `"start"` or `"end"` alignment options. |
| `avoidCollisions` | `boolean` | `true` | When `true`, overrides the `side` and `align` preferences to prevent collisions with boundary edges. |
| `collisionBoundary` | `Element \| null \| Array` | `[]` | The element used as the collision boundary. By default this is the viewport, though you can provide additional element(s) to be included in this check. |
| `collisionPadding` | `number \| Partial>` | `0` | The distance in pixels from the boundary edges where collision detection should occur. Accepts a number (same for all sides), or a partial padding object, for example: `{ top: 20, left: 20 }`. |
| `arrowPadding` | `number` | `0` | The padding between the arrow and the edges of the content. If your content has `border-radius`, this will prevent it from overflowing the corners. |
| `sticky` | `"partial" \| "always"` | `partial` | The sticky behavior on the align axis. `"partial"` will keep the content in the boundary as long as the trigger is at least partially in the boundary whilst `"always"` will keep the content in the boundary regardless. |
| `hideWhenDetached` | `boolean` | `false` | Whether to hide the content when the text becomes fully occluded. |
| `onEscapeKeyDown` | `(event: KeyboardEvent) => void` | - | Event handler called when the escape key is down. It can be prevented by calling `event.preventDefault`. |
| `onPointerDownOutside` | `(event: PointerDownOutsideEvent) => void` | - | Event handler called when a pointer event occurs outside the bounds of the component. It can be prevented by calling `event.preventDefault`. |
| `onFocusOutside` | `(event: FocusOutsideEvent) => void` | - | Event handler called when focus moves outside the bounds of the component. It can be prevented by calling `event.preventDefault`. |
| `onInteractOutside` | `(event: PointerDownOutsideEvent \| FocusOutsideEvent) => void` | - | Event handler called when an interaction (pointer or focus event) happens outside the bounds of the component. It can be prevented by calling `event.preventDefault`. |
| Data Attribute | Values |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| `[data-state]` | `"open" \| "closed"` |
| `[data-side]` | `"left" \| "right" \| "bottom" \| "top"` |
| `[data-align]` | `"start" \| "end" \| "center"` |
| CSS Variable | Description |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--selection-popover-content-transform-origin` | The `transform-origin` computed from the content and arrow positions/offsets. |
| `--selection-popover-select-width` | The width of the select. |
| `--selection-popover-select-height` | The height of the select. |
### Arrow
An optional arrow element to render alongside the popover. This can be used to help visually link the selected text with the `Selection.Content`. Must be rendered inside `Selection.Content`.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| --------- | --------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `asChild` | `boolean` | `false` | Change the component to the HTML tag or custom component of the only child. This will merge the original component props with the props of the supplied element/component and change the underlying DOM node. |
| `width` | `number` | `10` | The width of the arrow in pixels. |
| `height` | `number` | `5` | The height of the arrow in pixels. |
## Examples
### Origin-aware animations
```jsx
// index.jsx
import * as Selection from 'selection-popover'
import './styles.css'
export default () => (
...
...
)
```
```css
/* styles.css */
.SelectionContent {
transform-origin: var(--selection-popover-content-transform-origin);
animation: scaleIn 500ms cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1);
}
@keyframes scaleIn {
from {
opacity: 0;
transform: scale(0);
}
to {
opacity: 1;
transform: scale(1);
}
}
```
### Collision-aware animations
```jsx
// index.jsx
import * as Selection from 'selection-popover'
import './styles.css'
export default () => (
...
...
)
```
```css
/* styles.css */
.SelectionContent {
animation-duration: 400ms;
animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1);
}
.SelectionContent[data-state='open'][data-side='top'] {
animation-name: slideDownAndFade;
}
.SelectionContent[data-state='open'][data-side='bottom'] {
animation-name: slideUpAndFade;
}
@keyframes slideDownAndFade {
from {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(-2px);
}
to {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0);
}
}
@keyframes slideUpAndFade {

opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0);
}
}
```
### Unmount animations
```jsx
// index.jsx
import * as Selection from 'selection-popover'

...
...
)
```

/* styles.css */
.SelectionContent {
animation-duration: 400ms;
animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1);
}
.SelectionContent[data-state='open'] {
animation-name: slideDownAndFade;
}
.SelectionContent[data-state='closed'] {
animation-name: slideUpAndFade;
}
@keyframes slideDownAndFade {
from {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(-2px);
