Positioning the ViewCursor

Hi,

I'd like to set the visible Curser at a specific position inside a writer document, e. g. the beginning of the section called "mySection". The Service View Cursor only supports methods to go up/down left/right, but not to jump to a specific position like a bookmark or a text section. I can move the TextCursor to this positon, but is there a way to set the ViewCursor to the current position of the TextCursor?

thanks,
Verena

ViewCursor.gotoRange(TextCursor, false)

you also may be able to tell the current controller to "select" certain things, if you are not satisfied with the correct solution provided by JohnV.
