Hello,

 I've used a TextArea and a button. I wanted some text to appear inside the TextArea right on text cursor position when I clicked the button. It worked fine.

Then I added CKEdtor and now I am not able to add text on current cursor position. So far, the best I have is adding text at the end of text inside the editor.

Any help? I am using CKEditor.Reactive.

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Paulo

I was able to sort out the situation by using an action that triggers when I click the button and then runs JS adding text passed as parameter:


CKEDITOR.instances['TextArea_Body'].insertText($parameters.Tag);
