I know resolution defined as dots per length has already been introduced with Media Queries, but I still think it’s wrong to use ‘dpi’, ‘dpcm’ and (new) ‘dppx’ when we already have a whole bunch of length units which are just the inverse. I suggest we describe the dot size instead, using the units CSS has, or we use ‘calc()’. dot-count: 72dpi; dot-count: 100dpcm; /* 254dpi */ dot-count: 4dppx; became dot-size: 1pt; dot-size: 0.1mm; /* 100um */ dot-size: 0.25px; or dot-count: calc(72 / 1in); /* or (1 / 1pt) */ dot-count: calc(10 / 1mm); dot-count: calc(4 / 1px); (I think plain numbers are fine here, but perhaps you would need to introduce a unit ‘dot’ to work well with ‘calc()’.)Received on Saturday, 11 September 2010 14:15:28 GMT
