StyleManager

With Style Manager you basically build categories (called sectors) of CSS properties which could be used to custom components and classes. You can init the editor with all sectors and properties via configuration

var editor = grapesjs.init({
  ...
 styleManager: {...} // Check below for the possible properties
  ...
});

Before using methods you should get first the module from the editor instance, in this way:

var styleManager = editor.StyleManager;

Parameters

• config Object Configurations
  • config.sectors Array<Object> Array of possible sectors (optional, default [])

Examples

...
styleManager: {
   sectors: [{
     id: 'dim',
     name: 'Dimension',
     properties: [{
       name: 'Width',
       property: 'width',
       type: 'integer',
       units: ['px', '%'],
       defaults: 'auto',
       min: 0,
}],
    }],
}
...
