Resizing canvas makes componenents end up with wrong positions once exported with dmode 'absolute'

I have sort of found a workaround... Set the .gjs-frame-wrapper to the desired width in CSS and transform: translate (- x px, 0px) for the iframe in CSS. The Canvas is not the correct width then (slightly smaller) but everything seems to work fine nonetheless... I am not going to close the issue however, due to the fact, that it's due to the poor implementation of the author, who could fix this extremely easily, as outlined before.

Thanks for reporting this, @Adham380.

The issue with Resizing canvas makes componenents end up with wrong positions once exported with dmode 'absolute' 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);

2. Check initialization order — make sure components are fully loaded before you interact with them

3. 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
