Default styling properties are not being re-selected when switiching devices
Question
Hi,
Default styling properties are not being selected when switching devices.
Steps to reproduce: Open [http://grapesjs.com/demo.html] Select any block and observe the default values. For example, under General, Position is set to "static". Switch to Mobile. Change the Position to "relative". Switch back to Desktop, observe the Position is set to "relative" and not "static".
I expect when we switch the device if nothing was selected to show/select the default value.
I have a short video of the problem. https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12418977/127947367-b972400f-85fd-4bfb-a82b-1a3e5b572345.mp4

Any update on this @artf?
Hi @artf. Can I get an update on this issue? Do you consider this as a small issue or you didn't have time to work on it? Thank you.
I'm working on the StyleManager improvement at this moment, and probably I will be able to check this soon.
Thanks for reporting this, @MrNikolovski.
