Is it possibile to add span3 class in a mixin to avoid putting it in every element in my HTML? Something like: .myclass { .span3; // other rules... } EDIT I apologize I forgot to specify an important detail: span3 is a standard class of Bootstrap. I didn't find its definition in any file of the Bootstrap framework. ScottS New Answer (requires LESS 1.4.0) What you actually desire is something known as extending in LESS and SASS terminology. For example, you want an HTML element (just an example)... <div class="myclass"></div> ...to fully behave as if it had a span3 class from bootstrap added to

Tried searching for this but it's difficult given the syntax. Is there any way to generate a random number in LESS? I checked the documentation and don't see anything, but wondered if anyone knew of a trick or undocumented solution. Jason Sperske According to the documentation : JavaScript evaluation JavaScript expressions can be evaluated as values inside .less files. We recommend using caution with this feature as the LESS will not be compilable by ports and it makes the LESS harder to maintain. If possible, try to think of a function that can be added to achieve the same purpose and ask for

say i have this mixin: .loop-strings("A, B, C", "1, 2, 3", "X, Y, Z";); implemented like so: .loop-strings(@list, @index: 1) when (isstring(extract(@list, @index))) { @currentMember: extract(@list, @index); .do-something-with(@currentMember); .loop-strings(@list, (@index + 1)); /* loop the next member */ } .do-something-with(...) { @args1 : e(@arguments); @args2 : A, B, C; args1: @args1; args2: @args2; extract-args1-2: extract(@args1, 2); extract-args2-2: extract(@args2, 2); } The result: args1: A, B, C; extract-args1-2: extract(A, B, C, 2); args1: 1, 2, 3; extract-args1-2: extract(1, 2, 3, 2)
