Programmatically set the position of CKEditor's dialogs

Question

I\'m trying to find a way to programmatically set the position of a CKEditor dialog whenever a new one is opened up. The actual setting of the position part seems easy, but wha

Answer 1

After spending several hours today, I was able to figure this out by complete luck. Dialog definitions can be manipulated at load time. Within your config.js file, add the following:

CKEDITOR.on('dialogDefinition', function(e) {
    var dialogName = e.data.name;
    var dialogDefinition = e.data.definition;

    dialogDefinition.onShow = function() {
        // Calculate your newX and newY ...
        this.move(newX, newY);
    }
}

If you want to adjust the position for a specific dialog you can use dialogName to test for it.
