I have CSS file with a lot of unused CSS lines.
And I want to clean CSS file but not manually.
In browser developer tools I can see (unused/used) CSS but I can't clean file and copy just used CSS.

I think a CSS minifier tool is what you're looking for. There are online tools to help with this. Check out this other answer to see some options. I would recommend using this after you are done with development, otherwise it might make it harder to read.

I'm trying to customize a theme for a Magento 2 website (it was purchased), and for the most part I know where most of the .css calls are coming from. However, there is one sub-menu, I cannot find the source css file for the life of me.
Normally I use Chrome's inspection window to identify the css that is generating the colors/details that I'm looking for, and then search the source files for the same .css reference, and then make the modification as needed.
However, as mentioned I'm struggling to find a specific piece of css code, and I'm wondering if there might be a better way to find what I'm looking for?

i have made a webpage and now it is "feature-complete".
As a next step i want to put some style to it.
The project is based on the Play framework and i choose SCSS as my CSS alternative (with an SBT plugin to convert SCSS -> CSS).
Every time i change some CSS i have to reload the page in the browser, which takes a while, see if i like it and keep or revert. Then start over.
This workflow does not seem right to me. How do you style a webpage built with Play (specifically: i use Play templates, so i cannot just copy every piece of HTML into a CSS editor and style everything from there)?
The best way that i found is to change the CSS directly in Chrome, remember the changes and apply them to the source file later on.
Is there a more "automatic" way of doing things? Any nice editors or browser plugins that change the source file directly? What am i missing?
What are other people, using Play framework (or other templating systems) doing?
Thank you!
Maybe you can download an extension that automatically refresh's your page every ... seconds. On this way you only have to "Alt-tab" between your code and your page.
BTW: I couldn't comment this, I need 50 reputation. Otherwise I wouldn't have commented it because this isn't really an answer but this is just my advice.
I am making a Google Apps Script for Google Docs with a side panel.
I would like to match the style of buttons, scroll bars, etc. that Google Docs has.
FYI, a lot of the CSS seems to have be minified/obfuscated.
scb-button-icon
jfk-star
Where might I find such a thing?
I would have thought Google Apps Script might have provided something like this, since consistency makes the UX better.
If the official source is not available, is an unofficial one available?
EDIT: Sidebar CSS is now freely available, see CSS Package for Add-ons.
For research only, of course:
View Source of the page you wish to research. Copy and...
Paste into a text editor. Remove everything up to and including the <style> tag, and from the </style> tag to the end. Copy and...
Paste into an HTML decoder, to remove the encoding. Now you have all the CSS, it's just badly formatted. Copy and...
Paste into a CSS Formatter, and tidy it up. Optionally, output as a file.
At this point, you've got a CSS file that can be experimentally built into your for-personal-use-only app. Browser inspectors are handy for determining the HTML others have used to produce the UI elements you want to learn from.
Here's my own little experiment, a sidebar in a Google Doc, with an assortment of elements:
Not sure if you'll be able to find the source code, so here is an alternative:
CSS Unminify
This tool will take minified CSS and expand it. This will allow you to at the very least read the CSS and hopefully figure out which rules you need.
If copyright infringement is not an issue then you could simply recreate the design that Google adopt for their buttons. It should be fairly simple with CSS. The font Google + uses is called Roboto and is free to download
I talked to some of the guys at Google and got a alpha version of the CSS.
It does not yet, however, completely support IE or Firefox, and has (very minor) differences, so I accepted Mogsdad's answer.
I have a massive CSS file that is applied to several pages. I'm hoping to break it down to a common CSS file and several page-level CSS files, since it is becoming difficult to work with. Unfortunately, it's not easy to tell what exactly is common. I was hoping there was a way to quickly see what lines/selectors were being used on a given page. Does anyone know of a tool that can do this? I don't want to use developer tools and go through the DOM elements one by one. I'd like to look at the CSS file and see unused selectors grayed out or something. Thanks!
You can use, at least in Chrome, the Audits tab in the developer tools. Once you run it, it says you which styles aren't used in the current page.
Testing it on this site:
And for Firefox there an add-on called CSS Usage – might be worth a look too.
I find very convenient to edit a CSS from Chrome, and then saving my edits directly.
But then I need a way to take this changes back to SASS by hand, and I think that may be there is a tool to do this more easily.
I understand that it is difficult to have a tool that automatically does that, but may be there is some tool that can at least do a comparison between the SASS file and the CSS file (like a diff) and let me see the SASS in the right pane and the CSS in the left pane, in a synchronized view ?
Sass Sleuth is a tool that will solve this problem for you.
Alternatively you could use FireSass for Firefox, or Sass Inspector for Chrome.
You might want to try this nifty online service which does just that: https://css2sass.heroku.com/ or the code: https://github.com/jpablobr/css2sass
