SOLVED: Inconsistent property order between normal and Outline (hover/state) style groups in Style Manager

Type: UX Improvement

Area: Style Manager — Buttons

Description:
In the Style Manager, property order is inconsistent.

In the base group, Typography is listed as the first/near-top property. In the Outline group, however, Outline - Typography appears as the last item, after Background color, Border, and Box shadow.

Expected behavior:
Property order should be consistent between the base style group and its corresponding Outline/state group, so users can predictably find the matching property (e.g. Typography should be in the same relative position in both).

Actual behavior:
Typography is near the top in the base group, but Outline - Typography is at the very bottom of the Outline group — this breaks the mental mapping between “normal” and “state” properties and makes it harder to quickly find/edit matching properties when styling hover states.

Suggested fix:
Mirror the property order 1:1 between base and Outline groups (Typography, Background color, Border, Box shadow, etc. in the same sequence for both).

Hi Demas,
Yep… It’s no big deal :slight_smile:

We’ll update this thread once it’s fixed.
