How to blur

[linonetwo]

I get

Cannot find a descendant at path [0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0] in node: {"children":[{"text":""}],"operations":[],"selection":{"anchor":{"path":[0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0],"offset":3},"focus":{"path":[0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0],"offset":3}}

when I delete all values using the

const { resetEditor, value: updateEditorValue } = getPlateActions(editorID);

updateEditorValue(newValue);

API, seems I need to clear the selection. But I didn't find a good way to do this in plate, how to blur (reset selection)?

This is not working:

import { ReactEditor } from 'slate-react';

const { resetEditor, value: updateEditorValue } = getPlateActions(editorID);
const editorRef = usePlateEditorRef(editorID);

      // reset selection, so if you delete wikitext, selection won't goto some empty space and cause error
      platesActions.set(editorID); // don't need platesActions.unset(editorID); , this means reset to initial state I think
      ReactEditor.blur(editorRef);

I also tried Transforms.select(editorRef, SlateEditor.start(editorRef, [])) but still not working.

Note that to avoid tiddly-gittly/slate-write#3 bug I'm turning autoFocus: true,

This works:

const { resetEditor, value: updateEditorValue } = getPlateActions(editorID);

  // update current value from props
  useEffect(() => {
    // there will be cases that triple return replaced with double return (trim),  cause here rerender, but I think it is ok, not so frequent
    if (currentTextRef.current !== props.tiddlerText) {
      const newValue = deserialize(props.tiddlerText);
      currentAstRef.current = newValue;
      // reset selection, so if you delete wikitext, selection won't goto some empty space and cause error
      resetEditor();
      updateEditorValue(newValue);
    }
  }, [props.tiddlerText, currentTextRef, updateEditorValue, resetEditor]);
  useEffect(() => {
    // reset selection, so if you delete wikitext, selection won't goto some empty space and cause error
    resetEditor();
  }, []);
  const onBlur = useCallback(() => {
    // reset selection, so if you delete wikitext, selection won't goto some empty space and cause error
    resetEditor();
  }, []);

  return (
    <Plate id={editorID} initialValue={currentAstRef.current} plugins={plugins} onChange={onChange} editableProps={{ ...CONFIG.editableProps, onBlur }}>
      <BallonToolbar />
      <SnippetCombobox id={editorID} trigger="/" />
    </Plate>
  );
