get the selected text with window.getSelection() in ionic angular

How should I implement the window.getSelection().toString(); in an ionic app? I tried to get the plain text of the selected text from ionic textarea but I don't know how my app will be able to listen to that event.
At first, I'm trying to use the press gesture and get the selected text. But then it's not the correct way to do as when I move the app cursor selector to another text to select more text, my app no longer be able to listen to that selection event.

How can I detect focus in textfields in a webview using Swift 3?

I am building an application, and when I load a website in webview using Swift 3, the screen will appear like this, now I want to detect when user clicks on the email text field, and add a button to the navigation controller.
I don't know how to do it, does anyone have any idea?
The main use of webview is near like an iframe in web.
I mean that webview is just a displaying of internet content. By this way, you cannot detect any action like user clicks on email textfield.
According to me and currently, there is no possibility to do that because it is not the goal of a webview.

Instruments UI Automation tests for iPhone app

I'm a newbie in UI Automation using instruments and I have the following question:
- the application starts and I get the mainWindow screen (which contains SignIn and Register buttons)
- I've managed to write the JavaScript code in order to tap one of the two buttons.
-> after tapping one of the buttons, another screen is displayed. let's say the Sign In screen which contains two fields: username and password.
In this case, how can I tell Instruments that this is another screen and this contains another elements that should be retrieved in order to fill the fields and tap the Sign In button ?
I only know to retrieve the mainWindow. I don't know how to write the code for a next screen
Did you try to capture what you do with the small record button in the Javascript editor window? That way you can find out how Instruments can call the elements you use.

In the iOS SDK, how can I include a button in a UITextField like Mobile Safari does?

How can I display a button and/or activity indicator inside of a UITextField on the iPhone? I'm trying to reproduce Mobile Safari's location text field which contains either a reload button or a cancel (stop loading) button which is right-justified inside of the text field.
Similarly, when you click inside of the text field (not on the cancel/reload buttons) to edit the URL, a clear icon (x inside of a circle) is shown inside of the text field which will erase the contents of the text field.
How can I create this in my own apps? I cannot seem to do it via Interface Builder so I suspect it's being done in code.
There is a built in option that worked for me...check here:
