Solution

The following example demonstrates how to achieve the desired scenario.

  <style>
      #overlay{
        top:100;
        position:absolute;
        background-color:black;
        opacity:0.1;

      }
      #content{

    </div>
    <script>
      function setzIndex(index){
        $("#overlay").css("z-index", index);
      }
      $(document).ready(function() {
        // Create the Editor from a textarea HTML element with the default set of tools.
        $("#editor").kendoEditor();
      });
    </script>
