SCSS variables that refer to other SCSS variables... about sc5-styleguide

[jpbackman]

Thanks for reporting, we'll take a look and figure out the best way to handle this. At least the markup/visual representation should definitely use the actual color, whereas in the designer tool the $main-font-color value should still be $dark-grey.

Thanks for your prompt reply! Yes, the markup / visual representation is the issue. I would agree that designer tool value should stay $dark-grey. Looking forward to your fix on this one - thanks so much again!

Although I must admit, I have chained LESS variables that are working properly, somehow.
The following definitions resolve to the value of the right-hand vars,

@mi-color-product-productname1: @mi-color-corp-green2;
@mi-color-product-productname2: @mi-color-corp-blue;
@mi-color-product-productname3: @mi-color-corp-plum;
@mi-color-product-productname4: @mi-color-corp-yellow;

Wondering if I'm just getting lucky with the way the variables are sorted prior to replacement in the Angular filter, 'setVariables'...?

BTW: Making the LESS variables work requires the fix proposed in issue #546.

I am using LESS Variables as well and only some of my variables are chaining correctly while others are not. I have used KSS previously and am familiar with the syntax so not sure what else could be wrong.

@cognivator was there anything you did in specific to get this working for your less variables?

Has anyone here added bootstrap-sass to the SC5 styleguide and use its components to document them.

I’m pretty sure this is related to #782 as well.

After some poking I can tell that versions below 0.3.36 seem to have various problems with multiple dashes, hyphens and variable name length. For 0.3.36 at least problems with multiple hyphens and defined variable name being shorter than the one in the definition seem to be resolved.

Anybody still seeing this with 1.x?
