CKEditor - Can I trigger inline editing programmatically?

I have a CKEditor instance with inline editing enabled. It works fine, but I also have an [Edit] button which I want to trigger inline editing (and focus on the text) when the button is clicked.

Is this possible?

You need CKEDITOR.editor.focus() to do this (see on jsFiddle).

You can use like this

CKEDITOR.inline(myId); 
    
function onButtonClick()
{
    myId.focus();
}

try this javascript code to solve : focus the ckeditor inline

$(btn).on('click', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    $("#ckeditor_id").focus();
});
