It would be nice, if one could change the values of Craft/Open Props CSS variables direktly from within the Style Guide. For example right-clicking on the Text of the css-variable or on the Color Palette or of "--foreground-primary" would reveal an option to restyle the Craft/Open Props CSS root-variable directly without switching to the Globel Root and identify the corresponding CSS variable in a painfully long list of variables and change them there.

I'm looking for a possibility to change the orientation and ratio for images in a Grid, that come from a cms/cdn. Default would be square 1 column by 1 row. If the image has the "orientation"-value set in CMS to landscape it would span 2 by 1, if set to portrait it would span 1 by 2. Maybe an additional value "size" could set greater spans like 4 by 4 (square), 3 by 2 (landscape) and 2 by 3 (portrait) for promoted images. I found a tutorial for Webflow, which covers most of the functionality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ0swK8mbg4
Since Webstudio doesn't have an integrated CMS, the Values would have to come from an external (headless) CMS. But how to read them out and process them, so that the Grid-Items in Webstudio visualise as wanted?

I#m still on "Hobby" .
Using the "Portfolio" craft-template, I find items with differnt colors in the navigator. Most of them are black an have a style panel. Some of them are violet and don't have a style panel. I think, this is because the violet items of the template refer to external data / data variables. Does the violet color mean: "here is some information missing?". Is there a possibility to change the item from external data to local to get back the styling-panel for the objects? Ordoes the violet color mean something completely different?

👏 that helped, thanks!

Hello Webstudio Team!

I'm new to webstudio and taking my first steps. I've tried with webflow before. What I liked there: they have great video tutorials not only about the Ui und functionality, but also on really building sites and the pros and cons of different design-concepts.
What I didn't like: not OpenSource an longterm cost not transperent.

What I like with webstudio: generous freee tier, OpenSource, the concept of tokens ans craft-css and tho possibility to connect to any external CMS/CDN.

What I don't like about webstudio: if I got that right, for connecting to external CMS/CDN Webstudio Pro is needed. The free trial period of 14 days is too short for me. It would be nice, if the CMS-connection could at least be activated for the craft templates to study how this works. The videos and tutorials are not as comprehensive and extensive as with webflow. Webstudio is new in the market, so I'm shure, documentation and range of functions will improve.

You did an extraordinary good job in almost no time (since 02.2023) so far!
