The following example demonstrates TextField.getStart in a practical document-editing workflow. It gets the first character position (one-based) of a text field.

function onTxError(error) {
    console.error("TX Text Control error:", error.msg);
    error.handled = true;
}

function inspectStart(textField) {
    textField.getStart(
        function(result) {
            console.log("get start result:", result);
        },
        onTxError
    );
}
