Entering CartoCSS styling is simple. Most common errors are a caused by typos and missing formatting. If you are using CartoCSS in the Builder, you are notified which line of syntax contains an error. You can also click the *undo* and *redo* arrow buttons after entering code changes with CartoCSS.

|
Always apply the following format when entering CartoCSS code and be mindful of any quotes, brackets, and end line semi-colons.

|
||
|
|
{% highlight scss %}#layer_name {
|
||
|
|
cartocss-property-name: value;
|
||
|
|
cartocss-property-name: value;
|
||
|
|
cartocss-property-name: value;
|
||
|
|
cartocss-property-name: value;
|
||
|
|
}{% endhighlight %}
|
||
