8,329 PointsColor Helpers... How can apply the linear-gradient to the rest of li:nth-child with a mixing or similar?
I'd like apply the gradient to the rest of nth-child and I don't know if it's possible.
In this example.
.colors {
li {
background-color: $base;
}
li:nth-child(2) {
background: adjust-lightness($base, 10%);
}
li:nth-child(3) {
background: adjust-saturation($base, 30%);
}
li:nth-child(4) {
@include background ( linear-gradient($base, shade($base, 50%)));
}
li:nth-child(5) {
background: tint($base, 40%);
}
Thank you in advance

8,329 PointsDear Nick,
Thank for your answer. But I'm referring to create a mixin or similar to write the code the simplest way. Thanks again.

8,925 PointsSo heres a couple ways. You can select every other child by specifying odd or even within the perenthesis.
You can also choose every third, sixth or tenth child by using expressions. This one selects every third.
li:nth-child(n3+3) { }hope this helps.
