scrolling over hexadecimal color codes doesnt give preview

as the heading states, is there something I need to do or setup for this to work as it seems quite useful for a quick view.

Hi Doron Geyer

The ability to hover over the hex code to preview the color is feature of the browser and not Treehouse's Workspace. I know it is still not supported by Firefox, but has been supported by Chrome for quite some time now.
To be honest, unless you have no choice, Chrome is the browser that is recommended by most developers to be used in development. The features, especially the Dev Tools, are far more superior than other browsers.
So, if you're not using Chrome, I really do suggest you should, as you will find development and learning here on Treehouse greatly elevated (since almost of the teachers use Chrome in their courses).

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:

thanks, yea came to see that firefox doesnt support it. I use chrome from time to time but find firefox developer edition faster, less resource hungry and comprable in the things I need to use at this point.
