Please try new alpha: http://livestyle.emmet.io/alpha/

[rooc]

I know, this is the version I'm talking about

Can you post a screenshot with error log and opened LiveStyle popup?

[sergeche]

Can you open background.html page as described here? http://livestyle.emmet.io/alpha/#error-reporting And screenshot of log from that page

Don't know if it relevant but I have stylebot extension which can override site styles and in this case there are styles for that particular site which I try to style with Livestyle

[sergeche]

From that screenshot I see it works fine for stylesheet from typekit. And it seems like it doesn’t work for user stylesheets? I’ll check this use case later

[sergeche]

Can you try to reload page and see if other updates are applied to your custom stylesheet?

[rooc]

nope, same here

[sergeche]

Can you post stylesheet file you’re working with in editor?

[rooc]

https://www.dropbox.com/s/bxrjt05uwzlan00/pocket.css?dl=0

[sergeche]

Hmm, doesn’t look like a complex CSS, might be an issue with user stylesheet

[sergeche]

Please update both Chrome and Sublime Text plugins, this issue should be fixed

[rooc]

pulled plugin from repo removed and installed again chrome extension from http://download.emmet.io/livestyle-alpha.crx

same story

[sergeche]

Can you post errors screenshots?

[sergeche]

Can you describe, step-by-step, what you did in browser and editor?

[rooc]

• wrote some styles in sublime without including anywhere
• opened chrome, went to livestyle dialog:
  checked on, editor > browser, add stylesheet > picked pocket.css
• back to sublime - save
• error

[sergeche]

Just pushed update, do you still have this issue?

[rooc]

yep, the same

[sergeche]

Can youb open ST console and check if there are errors?

[rooc]

[sergeche]

No, everything seems fine.

Here’s what this problem means. You have an untitled file in ST which is treated by LiveStyle as CSS/LESS/SCSS (wrong syntax?). LiveStyle tries to save initial state of this file but it can’t be parsed (so initial state is not saved). And when you edit this untitled file, LS tries to diff current state against initial one and you receive this error.

Does it makes sense with your editor setup?

[rooc]

Not sure that I understood what you're saying. My file is readability.css, (/mnt/Chest/Dropbox/Data/StyleBot/readability.css) you can see it in the screen, so it is not untitled, syntax is usual CSS. Can this problem be somehow related to write access? Maybe my folder should have rights to wrtie files to everyone?

[sergeche]

Can you post a screenshot of your ST? LiveStyle doesn’t use file system (it only reads preprocessor dependencies and never writes anything)

[sergeche]

Hmm, that’s very strange... I’ll check it on ST on Ubuntu

[rooc]

Yep, and when I worked with previous version of LiveStyle I did more or less the same procedure and it worked

[rooc]

I've tried it today at home and it works. There was the same error message but it started working
