If I want to override some css from my component child, I just use:



:host ::ng-deep .y {
x: !important;
}


but how to override a style that already has !important? The above example in this case won't work

    You would have to make the CSS selector more specific. Can you show the HTML markup of the element and the context around it? If you could make a stackblitz showing the problem, that would be even better.

  • The original style: .sortable-container .sortable-list .active I tried: body .sortable-container .sortable-list li.active

Going from your comment about the original code this should probably work:



:host ::ng-deep .sortable-container .sortable-list ul .active {
x: value !important;
}


This assumes you're in a 'ul' but it could be ol or dl and replaced just as easily.
