If the decision is to "make Chrome's behavior the default" because of web-compat, the spec will need a new value. Chrome's behavior is equivalent to `fill-box` for percentages (lengths in `transform` and position in `transform-origin`), but is equivalent to `view-box` for absolute measurements in `transform-origin`. Which means it is possible for `transform` to use `fill-box` percentages for translation distances even while `transform-origin` uses the `view-box` origin. It also means that `transform-origin: 0 0` (the default, backwards compatible with SVG 1) is very different from `transform-origin: 0% 0%` (which switches to fill-box behavior). I've said in many places that I find this behavior to be a horrible mess of logical inconsistency, but if the only way to get the logical behavior as an _option_ is to spec the illogical behavior as the default, I may have to grudgingly accept that. -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/857#issuecomment-278519870 using your GitHub account
