Hello everyone ... a question certainly trivial, but I'm struggling to find an answer:

what is the difference between the paragraph object and the text object by accessing it via javascript? ...

I see that the first one is still based on the text class, but to use them correctly I should be aware of the differences between the two ...

thanks to anyone who can enlighten me!

A Paragraph object is a particular kind of Text object. If you select exactly a paragraph (e.g. by double-clicking somewhere in a text), then app.selection[0] returns [object Paragraph]. Same for Word, Character, etc. But when you select some random text, app.selection[0] returns [object Text].
