how to modify style.css in magento 2

Question

Magento ver. 2.2.0-dev

I want to make changes in style.css which is located at "pub/static/frontend/mytheme/mytheme_default/en_US/css/style.css".

If I make any changes in this folder directly no changes are taken place.

There is a file style.less in /app/design/frontend/theme/theme2/web/css

Update: i created a file style.css in /app/design/frontend/theme/theme2/web/css/style.css

and called the same class as defined in "pub/static/frontend/mytheme/mytheme_default/en_US/css/style.css"**

with some changes and run php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy from putty still it caches old styles.

then flushed cache also

Flushed cache types:
config
layout
block_html
collections
reflection
db_ddl
eav
customer_notification
config_integration
config_integration_api
full_page
translate
config_webservice

Update:

CSS is not merged from admin panel.

I commented old pub and run deploy - f, still CSS not updated and all the images are not showing. In the console, they are showing 404 for all images.

image path http://website.in/pub/media/Plazathemes/brandslider/images/2/_/2_2.png what to do.

Any suggestions.

Thank You.

You need to change in style.less or style.css in your theme folder and then deploy content as follows.

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

You need to run above command from Magento 2 root directory.
