&lt;dael> Topic: ] Add use-font keyword for text-decoration-width &amp; text-decoration-offset<br>
&lt;dael> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2376#issuecomment-371376593<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Suggestion to have a keyword to use metrics in  font. Proposals were use-font and from-font. We're open to other ideas. Resolution I'm looking for is a keyword for this thing. I vaguely recall another property with a similar keyword, but I couldn't find it.<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: I don't recall<br>
&lt;dael> myles: I think having a new keyword is fine. Point I raised in the issue is that implmay want UA dependant fixus if font has rediculous values.<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: That's fine.<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Do you plan that for a known list?<br>
&lt;dael> myles: It's done automatically so I can't comment on specific algo, but it's impl detail on how we perform the fixup.<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Okay.<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Spec would say use font would use metrics from first available font if they are reasonable?<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Or just say it would similar metrics to the font...that's bad...I'm not sure exact text.<br>
&lt;dael> myles: You could have a second sentence saying UA MAY synth values. I'll defer to fantasai . She can do a good job.<br>
&lt;myles> s/fixus/fixup/<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Question is if we add this keyword. Does anyone have concerns about adding a use font keyword for these text decoration metrics<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Obj?<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: I'm assuming use font is what we should use.<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Use fotn and from font are the top two.<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Use sounds better to me.<br>
&lt;liam> i prefer from-font<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: We're not dead set on this if there's a better idea.<br>
&lt;liam> since the font's glyphs aren't used.<br>
&lt;florian> +1 to from-font, but no objection to the other one<br>
&lt;dael> RESOLVED: about adding a use-font (name to be bikesheded) keyword for these text decoration metrics<br>
