Tell us what’s happening:

it seems i cant put the --building-color3 inside the first two colors.
.bb3 {
width: 10%;
height: 55%;
background: repeating-linear-gradient(90deg, var(–building-color3) 0%, var(–building-color3) 7.5%, var(–window-color3) 15%);
} this is my code for .bb3

You’ve deleted the background-color code that was already there so you’ll need to reset to get it back.

It doesn’t tell you to add a distance percentage for the first 2 colours in your repeating linear gradient.

3

this is my code ,its still not working.

.bb3 {
width: 10%;
height: 55%;
background-color: var(–building-color3);
background: repeating-linear-gradient(90deg var(–building-color3) 0%, var(–building-color3) 7.5%, var(–window-color3) 15%);
}

4

You haven’t removed the percentages on the first 2 colours. See the 2nd part of my first comment above and read the instructions carefully.

Also comma after 90deg and the correct dashes before the building and window colors.
