Highlight: clear() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
The clear() method of the Highlight interface removes all the Range objects from a Highlight object.
Highlight is a Set-like object, so this is similar to using Set.clear().
Syntax
js
clear()
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
The code snippet below shows how to create a new highlight with two ranges, and then clear it:
js
const highlight = new Highlight(range1, range2);
console.log(highlight.size); // 2
highlight.clear();
console.log(highlight.size); // 0
