Describe the bug
How to reproduce the bug?
- As per the definition for sectors in https://github.com/GrapesJS/grapesjs/blob/5c890449a52f526bc480d6dc649ff5e01ec59140/src/style_manager/index.ts#L310 properties are of type PropertyTypes
- The type definition in https://github.com/GrapesJS/grapesjs/blob/5c890449a52f526bc480d6dc649ff5e01ec59140/src/style_manager/config/config.ts#L8 is of type PropertyProps and hence is missing properties like options
What is the expected behavior? The type declaration in StyleManagerConfig.sectors.properties has to be of type PropertyTypes to accommodate options.
What is the current behavior? The type declaration in StyleManagerConfig.sectors.properties is PropertyProps and compiler complains since the property options is missing.

Thanks for reporting this, @SachinPuthiyoth.
Great question about Incorrect type definition for StyleManagerConfig.sectors.properties. The recommended approach with StyleManager is to use the event-driven API.
Start here:
- Check the GrapesJS documentation for your specific module
- Look for the
on()event listener method - Most operations can be achieved by listening to editor and component events
Common patterns:
// Listen for changes
editor.on('change', () => console.log('something changed'));
// Component lifecycle
editor.on('component:mount', (c) => console.log('component ready', c));
editor.on('component:update', (c) => console.log('component updated', c));
