I can't add any scss changes to my projects as of late. Was working yesterday and no changes were done to the other project. Style.css and style.css.map files keep appearing even though settings.json file is in place
I delete the style files and am watching sass but it just keeps popping up

I use live sass compiler extension. so uptade css file when save scss file but every time I should resave main scss to apply changes. How can I apply changes after saving imported scss files at once.
one more question. is there any solution for automatically start "watch-sass" when opening workspace.
I'm building in WebStorm.
I have a main.scss witch references several partial files (names prefixed with _) via #use. I have a file watcher set up and everything works fine when I'm working in the main.scss - I make changes, they get compiled and are reflected in my build.
When I make change in a partial though they don't seem to trigger the file watcher. In order for the changes to show in the build I have to jump back to main.scss and make some small change that triggers the watcher and everything gets compiled. This is a bit of a pain to keep having to do but I've tried messing around with the watcher settings and have had no luck.
Can anyone suggest a way to trigger the file watcher when partial SCSS files are updated?
Thanks
Not a full answer as WebStorm just doesn't seem to want to play ball but in the end I set up webpack and am using the sass-loader which seems to work as desired and actually makes more sense as I'll usually be running webpack anyway.
I'm moving my workflow to use sourcemaps with Sass, and it was going well, but I'm having trouble with it overwriting my main.scss every time I make a change in Chrome Devtools.
My file structure is like this:
scss - main.scss
|- inc
|-_mixins.scss
|-_typo.scss
|- etc...
and main.scss contains multiple #import "inc/mixins"; lines, obviously each with different filenames.
I created a sourcemap, using sass --sourcemap scss/main.scss css/main.css and then started watching the files using sass --sourcemap --watch scss:css, (all found in this tut).
I've also mapped working files in Chrome Devtools.
It works initially, in that if I examine the elements in DevTools, I see the code in SCSS. If I edit a value, it overwrites my scss/main.scss with the contents of css/main.css, which is massively weird.
Anyone shed any light on this?
So, I figured it out.
I followed the tut to get this working, but had mapped the local files incorrectly.
If you are manually setting up SASS sourcemapping, you must be careful to map included files to the correct locations. Somehow I had one mapped to main.scss, and so it was overwriting it on changes.
I am using sass with prepros compiler and sublime editor. I need to have each scss file complied with the same file name.
For example:
I currently have-
header.scss
content-top.scss
footer.scss
and they are all compiles into style.css to create one full style sheet.
I wish to have a style folder with
header.css
content-top.css
footer.css
which will be done automatically when saving and compiling like I normally do.
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you
Check this link out.
It states that you can adjust your project structure (in your case CSS folders) in project settings.
If I remember correctly you may have to buy it so that you can compile more than 4 or 5 Sass files, but I may be wrong.
Also check that you aren't "only" importing sass partials because of this:
Any Sass and Scss file (i.e. including partials) imported by another
file are not shown in the files list but they are still watched by Prepros.
The parent file is re-compiled whenever any of the imported files are changed.
I don't know why my filewatcher doesn't transpile certain scss files. I wanted to rename files that already existed to use them as partials. That worked fine for most of them but i couldn't rename all of them. When I tried to use "refactor->rename" there was a warning that the files would be used by another script but that was definitly not the case. I was not able to rename them in phpStorm so i renamed them in the directory manually. That worked but now no css files are created anymore. I tried to synchronize but that didn't help. My settings seems to be correct (see picture). Anyone had the same problem before and knows the solution?
When "Track only root files" option is on, the content of partials is merged into a single .css files when transpiling, so that a single css is generated instead of creating a separate css for each partial
