The look of the editor itself is determined by the editor skin set in SiteSettings.

You can create custom skins for the editor by copying one of the installed ones and modifying it.

They live in the folder /Web/FCKeditor/editor/skins.

You may be able to learn other customizations by downloading from the FCK site and looking in the documentation that comes with it.

The editor uses the same css as the page because it is set like this in the HtmlEdit.aspx.cs for example.

fckBody.Config["EditorAreaCSS"] = SiteUtils.GetStyleSheetUrl();

Generally this is a good idea because you want things to look the same in th editor as they will in rendered page.

I have seen some issues in certain skins that are using center alignment like centered1, the text in the editor appears centered even though it won't appear centered when rendered.

I think this can be fixed with further tweaking of the style.css file for the skin

Hope it helps,

Good solution! I'll do the same in the built in skins that use centered layout.

Thanks,

Joe
