Mimic Function

A custom function to copy the computed style of a given property from the first element in the document matching a selector. Use this to imitate the properties of other elements.

Syntax

• <selector> is a CSS selector to match a tag in the document from which to copy computed style property values

Usage

Use --mimic() on any property with a CSS selector to have CSS imitate the computed value of that property:
