Describe the bug
How to reproduce the bug? 1.Go the the graepesjs.com/demo page open up the console and use the global editor object run the editor.runCommand( 'sw-visibility') method - built in grid lines And the command does not run even though its been set on the panel, I've had this setup in my project and recently upgraded from 0.20.3 to the latest v0.21.8 and noticed the editor.runCommand no longer works even when trying editor.runCommand( 'sw-visibility',{force:true}) no luck
What is the expected behavior? The command toggles the sw-visiibility command like the panel/button similar to the grapejs demo
What is the current behavior? toggle does not work programmatically anymore
If is necessary to execute some code in order to reproduce the bug, paste it here below:
editor.runCommand( 'sw-visibility')

Thanks for reporting this, @JonathanRiche.
Great question about Commands.runCommand not working for built in command. The recommended approach with GrapesJS 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));
If you're still stuck:
- Share a minimal CodeSandbox reproduction
- Include what you've already tried
- Mention your GrapesJS version
