Example of force selection in draftjs

draftjs-force-selection.js

const getEditorState = this.props.store.getItem('getEditorState');
		const setEditorState = this.props.store.getItem('setEditorState');
		const selection = this.props.store.getItem('lastSelection');
		const editorState = getEditorState();
		const updateSelection = new SelectionState({
			anchorKey: selection.anchorKey,
			anchorOffset: selection.anchorOffset,
			focusKey: selection.anchorKey,
			focusOffset: selection.focusOffset,
			isBackward: false,
		});
		let newEditorState = EditorState.acceptSelection(
			editorState,
			updateSelection
		);
		newEditorState = EditorState.forceSelection(newEditorState, newEditorState.getSelection());
		setEditorState(newEditorState)

What is the difference of using acceptSelection vs forceSelection?

Forceselection
Returns a new EditorState object with the specified SelectionState applied, forcing the selection to be rendered.

This is useful when the selection should be manually rendered in the correct location to maintain control of the rendered output.

AcceptSelection the same but without requiring the selection to be rendered.

Could you just pass in newSelectionState without having to create a new EditorState from acceptSelection()?

e.g.
newEditorState = EditorState.forceSelection(newEditorState, updateSelection);

I'm sorry but I haven't used draftjs in a while, you'd have to do a test.
