Phobic78 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 It is me, or is this a new and irritating feature in SS? If I am creating a style sheet at the top of a page and I scroll down to view the effect it is having, the code block now auto-closes so I can't view both at the same time. Does anybody have a workaround for this? Would anybody else like to see this feature removed from code blocks? Link to comment
paul2009 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 The easiest way to add and test styles is to open the Design > Custom CSS panel and add them there. No Code Blocks should be necessary.

When I am setting a style for an individual page I insert the CSS into a code block at the top of the page. Interestingly, markdown blocks seem not to disappear when scrolling so this might be a workaround. Link to comment
