CSS Animating SVG with CSS Transitions and Transforms Transitions and Transforms

Seriously????

How can one be expected to complete the task without information. I checked the other questions regarding this, and it STILL won't work....

From the forum...

<<<I have been using this code and it works in preview, but does not pass.

.star-bg { transition: 1s ease-out; }

.star-bg:hover { fill: #FFF; }

Please correct me as I cannot see where I am going wrong? Note easing and fill colour were not specified in original task.

If you include something that is not specified in the task, it will not pass. For example, the ease-out timing function is not necessary and the fill color needs to be steelblue instead of #FFF.>>>

Nowhere in the instructions does it say anything about changing the color to steelblue, and even IF you do it that way, it still fails. I call bull on this one!! The only complaint I have about Treehouse are these oddball quizzes with NO logical answer!

Hi Scott,

Is it task 2 that you're stuck on?

Makes it hard to do step 2 when the color you need isn't introduced till step 3.

Yes, but ended up cheating my way through it!

Really frustrated over the lack of instruction. Where the heck does STEELBLUE come from in this whole thing?
