Options

Tip-grapesjs-script-editor is better suited for editing scripts instead of using editJs, reason being editJs will inject scripts as separate components onto the canvas which often interferes with the main editor. grapesjs-script-editor avoids this by injecting scripts directly into a component therefore avoiding the use of allowScripts.

cleanCssBtn-When you delete a selector in the code-editor it is still in the Selector Manager therefore it will still affect the component after saving, this button removes the selector from both the code-editor and Selector Manager. Only valid css rules can be removed eg .class{ color: blue }
