A delay in setting the model will cause tinymce to remain empty about ui-tinymce

[honeyd]

I verified this morning that this is a problem specific to AngularJS 1.2.0-rc3. Everything works great in AngularJS 1.2.0-rc2. Someone has already submitted an issue to AngularJS. Essentially, ngModel.$render is not successfully reassigned in the directive.

angular/angular.js#4560

I got around this issue by adding this code:

var stopWatch = scope.$watch(attrs.ngModel, function(newValue)
{
    if (!tinyInstance) 
    {
        tinyInstance = tinymce.get(attrs.id);
    }

    if (tinyInstance) 
    {
        tinyInstance.setContent(newValue);
        stopWatch();
    }
});

before

ngModel.$render = function() {

A simple fix is to add a positive priority in tinymce directive. In case you want to know more

The priority fix clearly documented by @iwang worked like a dream. Genius!

This looks like it is now fixed in master - let me know otherwise.

iWang's solution worked for me too - thanks!
