  • Emmet (previously Zen Coding) is a set of text editor plugins allowing for high-speed coding in HTML, XML, XSL, and other structured code formats by expanding CSS-like expressions of elements into their corresponding representation.

  • What are you expecting to get with the `pos` prefix? You are outside a ruleset. – Mark Feb 07 '23 at 18:06
  • @Mark pos is just an example i tried many coomands from here https://docs.emmet.io/cheat-sheet/ – Monkey Feb 07 '23 at 18:41

    Almost all of those `css` emmet abbreviations are for inside a ruleset ONLY. They won't work if you are outside a ruleset as your image in the question shows. Try inside a ruleset. – Mark Feb 07 '23 at 18:59
  • @Mark you are right thank you i just started using css and didn't knew it work only inside of a rule set. html work even outside of ruleset – Monkey Feb 07 '23 at 19:07
  • Great, I added the info as an answer. I don't know why some people seem to think emmet doesn't work in a css file - it does. – Mark Feb 07 '23 at 19:14

In your case, the image shows you are outside of a css ruleset so there are many fewer emmet abbreviations that will work there. Your image shows what happens with a prefix of pos - it suggests things like :placeholder-shown, etc. that do appear as part of a css selector. If you are expecting the rest of the emmet abbreviations, like bg for background-color, use it IN a ruleset.

  • There seems to be some confusion from commenters (some since deleted) that emmet does not work in a css file - it does and has for some time.
