Is there a way to fix this? Do I have to select that setting somewhere?

998 PointsHi, I think my code is correct because it shows up in Preview just fine. What it does not do is show me what the color will look like, in a little box when I hover over it, like it does in the video. I have to save and reload my Preview webpage in order to see the color.
My code looks like this
header{ background: #6ab47b; border-color: #599a68; }
