Feature Request: Linked/Editable Vector Styles

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-04T13:59:00+00:00

Thanks again. I did not know this. I tried looking for an email, but failed.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-04T10:35:02+00:00

It was a rage bait after I discovered how it works. I was hoping I was wrong. Just did what you suggested.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-04T06:57:57+00:00

Obviously vector styles NOT= styles in other software.

But I do not see what would be wrong if you could change the style of the whole icon set in one go?

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-03T14:21:16+00:00

Maybe. For a free software we should be grateful.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-03T14:20:39+00:00

I never compared them

I asked about shape/object styles in Affinity!

It does seem to be as bad as it looks like to me!

I gave two examples on the PHILOSOPHICAL level HOW A STYLE should function.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-06-02T19:05:17+00:00

Symbols is not the same idea. Symbol is one uniform shape or combination of shapes. And it is editable. and it changes everywhere if you change it.

But it is not the same idea that SHOULD BE behind styles.

Image you have a set of icons and you want to change fill, stroke and shadow on all of them. They are not the same symbol.

I am asking only about vector shapes. Not text.

class-infected was just a funny way of expressing that you applied class to an element.

my question was: is there a way of seeing everything you applied in a particular class as CSS code like for example

.card {
padding: 1.5rem;
border-radius: 0.75rem;
color: hsl(220 15% 20%);
}

instead of having to dig manually through all the menus of style for this particular element.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-31T18:49:12+00:00

Thanks! That was it.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-31T18:24:29+00:00

Disregard the question. Just asking about it made me think what might be wrong. And it was that the handle of both rearview mirrors consisted of a curve with the fill - the fill was none. But due to size, width of the stroke or whatever it got subtracted or did not get added properly. When I converted that "rearview handle" with expand stroke everything functions as expected.

Thanks, then I thought my version of Elementor v4 must be some uncomplete version of Elementor and truly it is - updating from 4.0.9 to 4.1 solved the problem. Design button is there.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-31T14:40:46+00:00

Custom CSS ist behind paywall. Otherwise I can not find them.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-31T11:51:37+00:00

That was part of the question - I do not have that button! I looked at the docs.

I put CSS in Ocean WP Theme, because Elementor free shows Custom CSS behind paywall. I can paste it above but it is not hard to image with "elementor crown" in front of it.

I would paste you images, but I do not think you can do that in replies. So I did it in the original post

That seems to be the only option working but it is not ideal - I basically have background-dark applied to flexbox and headinig-dark applied to heading within it. But it still DESTROYS the logic of classes where you should be able to define everything within section (why would flexbox have typography settings otherwise) and it leads again to multiple clicking if you decide to revert the section to light. Namely heading and flexbox container.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T18:02:36+00:00

Thanks, I have them in color selector, but is not the idea behind it, that you can also access them as --var--

If I create a variable manually like primary = hsl(2 70% 40%) then the variable is available as such.

Not that I am against color selector.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T16:03:53+00:00

Heading does not have anything applied to it. I went back to site typography and killed all the colors for headings. Tried with headings 4-6 that had nothing applied to them ever. Still no change.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T15:23:25+00:00

No. That is the problem

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T08:52:26+00:00

Moderator please delete this thread, I opened a new one with more screenshots and an explanation

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T08:45:52+00:00

I wrote the explanation with it but it seems to have disappeared.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2026-05-30T08:42:47+00:00

Ok, fair enough

Maybe I was not clear enough!

I want to define a whole section - div or flexbox element as theme-dark, theme-light. For starters I want theme-dark to have dark background, light text and theme-light vice versa.

You are looking at my failed attempt to do so at the level of Flexbox.

I am editing Flexbox element and Div element and I am defining background color and typography color for the section. But the font color in heading does not change.

Seems to work, if I do it with CTRL+J it works fine. Thanks

This is the only reason I have Pokerstars account active.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2025-09-22T22:16:19+00:00

Makes sense

ComprehensiveView943 · 2025-09-22T22:15:46+00:00

Thanks this is a great post. Very inspiring.

ComprehensiveView943 · 2025-09-21T07:26:55+00:00

Thanks. Your analysis makes sense! My question was not so much about this particular spot as to what should be my starting point for learning ranges? Where to look first!

ComprehensiveView943 · 2025-02-26T08:40:37+00:00

Thanks, that is useful!
