In LO basic there is the .getSelection() to retrieve the current cell selection. Is there an equivalent in Python, that does not resort to calling the Basic functionality?
Hello,
In Python:
desktop = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDesktop()
selection = desktop.CurrentComponent.CurrentController.getSelection()Thanks, that worked. The intent was to decrease a date in a cell by one as sometimes I enter data a day or two later and wanted to use keystrokes.

try too:
doc = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDocument()
selection = doc.CurrentController.Selection
