CKEditor running in Flex and AIR

CKEditor is the new version of FCKEditor. Following up on my FCKEditor post, I’ve got CKEditor up and running in both flex and air now.

Download the library + demo’s at http://blog.aboutme.be/wp-content/uploads/ckeditor_flex_air/ckeditor_flex_air.zip

Again, some release notes (same as FCKEditor actually :-)):

When you extract the zip file, you will find an swc file, an assets folder and de demos folder. If you want to use CKEditor in your own Flex or AIR projects, add the swc to your library path, and the assets folder to your src folder (just like the demo projects).

When you use the component in a Flex project, you need to ensure you set the wmode property to ‘opaque’. Also, if you run it on your local filesystem with Internet Explorer, you won’t see the component. It works fine if you run it on a webserver.

    How do you change the size of the editor. I have it displaying, but the right edge and bottom edge are cutoff. I have looked around at various files but have yet to find the correct one.

    Is there something wrong with the zip file? When ever I try to open it up, it’s showing duplicate files for folders that are corrupted? Not sure if that’s correct, but it’s like I have to extract each file individually.??
