I'm converting from VBA to Office.js and I'm unable to find an office.js function for Word that is equivalent to Selection.MoveRight function in VBA. Is there a simple way to do similar things?

For example, I have a string of characters and inline images, and I would like to move right for designated N characters (including inline images), then insert a line break:

Example

This is easy to do in VBA like below. How could I do the same thing in office.js?

Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:= N
Selection.TypeParagraph

There is no equivalent for MoveRight in the Office JavaScript library. Something you might try to get the results you want:

Use the Range.getOOXML() method to get the underlying OOXML of the range. Add OOXML line breaks. Then use Range.insertOOXML() to replace the original range with the new one.
