forceSync not working?

[spencertweedy]

Describe the bug forceSync doesn't store the EasyMDE editor's value in the original textarea.

To Reproduce See this Glitch.

It appears that forceSync does immediately sync the EasyMDE content into the original textarea, but for some reason it doesn't fire any events on the original textarea.

I have a StimulusJS controller listening to "change" events on the original textarea and the change event isn't firing when EasyMDE syncs its contents into the textarea.

Why is closed?

@spencertweedy I had the same problem as you, how did you solve it?

A workaround that works for me:

  new EasyMDE({
    element: ...,
    forceSync: true
  }).codemirror.on('change', (e) => {
    $(e.getTextArea()).trigger('change');
  });
