Colors from theme.json doesnt parse for hover states

[tonnysantana]

When using variables from the theme.json, the value is not parsed and doesn't save in the hover state for buttons.

You can test going to the site editor > styles > blocks > button & selecting a color from the theme.json in the hover state. It is not going to save unless you use a raw value that were not been saved in the theme.

If it somehow work with the default colors, try create a new one in the theme.json

thank you

Removing trunk version as this is not going to be shipped with WP 7.0 but in the next releases.

@tonnysantana thanks for this! And welcome to Trac!

It's possible that this may require some discussion upstream in ​the Gutenberg repository. Could you open an issue there as well?

I'm unclear whether this is a regression specific to 7.0 or not, so re-adding the trunk version until that can be clarified.

I tested using the following Theme.json, and the colors were applied correctly according to the button state.

{
	"version": 3,
	"settings": {
		"appearanceTools": true,
		"layout": {
			"contentSize": "840px"
		}
	},
	"styles": {
		"blocks": {
			"core/button": {
				":hover": {
					"color": {
						"background": "#ff0000"
					}
				},
				":focus": {
					"color": {
						"background": "#00ff00"
						}
				},
				":active": {
					"color": {
						"background": "#0000ff"
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

@tonnysantana It would be helpful if you could provide more details about how you define your theme.json, what specific actions you've taken, and what problems you're encountering, so that other contributors can test it.

Hey @tonnysantana

Thank you very much for the ticket!

We just checked it on our bug-scrub for the WP 7.0.1 milestone. We havent yet received and answer from your for the request of Aki. We'll have to move the ticket to a later milestone as we cant replicate it at the moment.

Hi I am so sorry @masteradhoc. I am envolved in some tasks on the company that I work, and we use gutenberg a lot. I didn't have time to answer at first, and then when I did, I forgot to answer.

Thank you for taking a look on this.

I would like to let you know that I did test now and it seems to be working fine!
