If you do want to provide this widely requested feature - perhaps you could try it out 😀If your algorithm is smart regarding calculating the estimated target value, it will not need many passes, and it might need only one or two passes. For all and any cases. > Such an algorithm would be a great way to make a browser hang. When you try it out, and limit the maximum number of passes to 2 == no browser hang at all, and if your algo can *estimate* the correct value pretty well, then there's a good chance that the result will be sufficiently good. You'd have to try it out though. If you do not want to provide that feature no matter what, and thus do not want to create a quick "beta" implementation for seeing what's feasible, then there's not much reason to continue the discussion. In that case please close the ticket. I did create a quick implementation using JS and found that it works sufficiently well using only two passes. The code is at https://tobireif.com/ -> source -> "var topLevelHeadings". It's just a quick (but good enough for that case) implementation - I'm 100% sure that you could come up with a much better (and generally applicable) algo 😀 Here's another JS implementation: http://fittextjs.com/ https://github.com/davatron5000/FitText.js None of the above implementations causes any noticeable performance issue. And: The latter is a general lib. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tobireif Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2528#issuecomment-381322076 using your GitHub account
