Remarks

Replaces the specified range (st…en) of text in this Editable with a copy of the slice start…end from source. The destination slice may be empty, in which case the operation is an insertion, or the source slice may be empty, in which case the operation is a deletion.

Before the change is committed, each filter that was set with setFilters(InputFilter) is given the opportunity to modify the source text.

If source is Spanned, the spans from it are preserved into the Editable. Existing spans within the Editable that entirely cover the replaced range are retained, but any that were strictly within the range that was replaced are removed. If the source contains a span with Spanned.SPAN_PARAGRAPH flag, and it does not satisfy the paragraph boundary constraint, it is not retained. As a special case, the cursor position is preserved even when the entire range where it is located is replaced.
