How to use CKEDITOR.tools.callFunction for specific instance

Question

I can use this code:

var OriginalFunction = CKEDITOR.tools.callFunction;
CKEDITOR.tools.callFunction=function(n,x)
{
  OriginalFunction(n, x);
  alert("Called From New function");
}

To add a javascript function beside the regular function of he CKeditor toolbar buttons. but i need to be able to add to a specific editor instance. so i tried:

var OriginalFunction = CKEDITOR.instances.editor1.tools.callFunction;
CKEDITOR.instances.editor1.tools.callFunction=function(n,x)
{
  OriginalFunction(n, x);
  alert("Called From New function");
}

But then the function i add don't work. is there another way to do that?

Thanks.

You should get an error (not "doesn't work" but a javascript error) because tools isn't a member of the editor instance.

You might want to use the afterCommandExec event instead.

How would i use it? CKEDITOR.instances.FormLinePreview.afterCommandExec(evt){ alert("Called From New function");} ?

No, this is an event so you use it like any other event: instance.on("afterCommandExec", function (evt) {})

Why doesn't it work when you press on a dropdown list option (for example 24 on the font-size list)?

Showing the contents of a dropdown list isn't executing any command
