Hello!

We used this trick to solve the problem for a while:

            editor.on("rte:enable",()=>{
                editor.trigger('canvasScroll');
            });

subscribe to the event rte:enable and trigger the canvasScroll. With this, the grapes will recalculate the position.

Thanks for reporting this, @mingxin-yang.

The issue with ckeditor wrap and block the text below appears to be a race condition or state management timing problem. This typically happens when component lifecycle events and DOM modifications overlap, creating an inconsistent state.

What to try:

  1. Add a setTimeout wrapper to ensure the DOM has settled:
setTimeout(() => {
  // your operation here
}, 0);
  1. Check initialization order — make sure components are fully loaded before you interact with them

  2. Use the editor's event system — listen to completion events:

editor.on('component:mount', (component) => {
  // safe to interact with component here
});

Recommended next steps:

  • Test with the latest GrapesJS version if you haven't
  • Provide a minimal reproducible example (CodeSandbox) — this helps the team identify the root cause faster
  • Include GrapesJS version, browser, and console errors in your report
