Issues with Sticky Navigation, Color Styling, and Portfolio Component

At a glance

The community member is experiencing issues with their Webflow project, including an "Error: Unknown variable" when setting the color of elements, and problems with the "Portfolio 22" component and image hover effects. The comments suggest that the color variable issue can be fixed by navigating to the parent section and resetting the unknown color variable. Additionally, the comments provide instructions on how to reset styles using the shortcut key Option + Click (on Mac) or Alt + Click (on Windows).

Ahh, I'm having a decent amount of issues. They are listed below along with my read only link

  1. When setting the color of elements (namely typography), I am getting the message: "Error: Unknown variable". I tried doing what I thought it meant by resetting "the style property associated with this reference", but what I tried did not work.
  2. I cannot get component "Portfolio 22" to work. When I hover over the different sections, the image does not change.

Any and all help would be appreciated! Thank you so much!

The color variable can be fixed by navigating to the parent section and resetting the unknown color variable there. It’s really annoying, I was battling with this myself last night.

I have the same Problem, how do i reset the color variable? And i also have the Problem with Borders, because its a bento-grid

As you would with any property in the panel

I’m not at Mac ATM so can’t remember which modifier key you press when clicking the label

Use the shortcut key Option + Click (on mac) or Alt + Click (on Windows) to reset styles. Go forth and make your designs shine with Style panel
