Tell us what’s happening:

i’m stuck and i keep receiving the message " You should add a repeating-linear-gradient with a first color of --building-color4 from 0% to 10% ."

Your code so far

I’ve edited your code for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').

Ya, this one might be a little tricky because the repeating linear gradient you added in the previous step had a 90deg angle, but if you read the instructions for this step again you will notice that there is no mention of adding a 90deg angle.
