Question

CKEditor creates a resizable window of some default size. Is it possible to set the window to my desired size and prevent it from being resized?

Styles do not work, including explicit style or rows attribute in the textarea tag.

jQuery also does not work (with it’s height function).

Answer 1

Use these config settings:

Starting height and width:

config.height = '111px'; 
config.width = 111;

---

Is the CkEditor window resizeable:

config.resize_enabled = false; //false says not resizable

---

You can let it be resizable, but control the direction (vertical or horizontal) and the minimum and maximum values.

config.resize_dir = 'vertical'; //Can use (both, vertical, and horizontal)

Height:

config.resize_maxHeight = 111;
config.resize_minHeight = 111;

Width:

config.resize_maxWidth = 111;
config.resize_minWidth = 111;

The CkEditor API for config settings is here:
CKEDITOR.config API

It tells you the allowed values and formatting for each setting.
