Change CKEditor Table Properties default width

If you want to make your CKEditor table responsive you need to set the table width in percentage rather than a fixed px or em value. By default, the table width value is set to 500 px. To change this value you need to add the following code in config.xml file.

/**

CKEDITOR.on('dialogDefinition', function( ev ) {
	
	  var diagName = ev.data.name;
	  var diagDefn = ev.data.definition;

	  if(diagName === 'table') {
	    var infoTab = diagDefn.getContents('info');
	    
	    var width = infoTab.get('txtWidth');
	    width['default'] = "100%";
	    
	    
	  }
});

The above code will set the Table's default width to 100% instead of 500 as previously set.
