Tip & Tricks: Editor Edition
Do you want to speed up your content authoring experience with MindTouch? CKEditor is compliant with several standards on accessibility and keyboard shortcuts. This means that you can gain access to much of the toolbar functionality without ever touching your mouse!
Hit Alt+0 in the editor to get instructions or see Accessibility Features Guide. We also added some key shortcuts so you can quickly save your content, create links, lists, and more.
If you use Ctrl+V to paste content, there are some configuration options which can be useful to cleanup your pasted content. By default, we strip any inline styles when pasting in Webkit browsers. You can change this behavior or enable it for all other browsers. You can also use filter options to cleanup content which was copied from MS Office.
Are you still use mouse? Then you should know that double click on links, images and any other object like form elements would open corresponding dialog.
For the developers, CKEditor is driven by a plugin based architecture. This flexibility allows you to write your own plugins for new features or use one of existing third-party plugins or plugins that ship with MindTouch. We provide several plugins which are not enabled by default. You can optionally enable these or even disable any unwanted plugins from your MindTouch Control Panel’s Editor Configuration page.
