	<methods>
		<method name="add_node">
			<return type="void" />
			<param index="0" name="node" type="Node" />
			<description>
				Adds a node to the selection.
				[b]Note:[/b] The newly selected node will not be automatically edited in the inspector. If you want to edit a node, use [method EditorInterface.edit_node].
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="clear">
			<return type="void" />
			<description>
				Clear the selection.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_selected_nodes">
			<return type="Node[]" />
			<description>
				Returns the list of selected nodes.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_top_selected_nodes">
			<return type="Node[]" />
			<description>
				Returns the list of top selected nodes only, excluding any children. This is useful for performing transform operations (moving them, rotating, etc.).
				For example, if there is a node A with a child B and a sibling C, then selecting all three will cause this method to return only A and C. Changing the global transform of A will affect the global transform of B, so there is no need to change B separately.

		<method name="get_transformable_selected_nodes" deprecated="Use [method get_top_selected_nodes] instead.">
			<return type="Node[]" />
			<description>
				Returns the list of top selected nodes only, excluding any children. This is useful for performing transform operations (moving them, rotating, etc.). See [method get_top_selected_nodes].
