>From the CR version of the spec (which is what WebKit, Chromium and Edge implement, and also what happens to still be stuck in my brain): https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/CR-css3-multicol-20110412/#column-fill > In continuous media, this property [column-fill] will only be consulted if the length of columns has been constrained. Otherwise, columns will automatically be balanced. I don't know where that wording went, but it's not in the current version of the spec. Such an important behavior change should be in the changelog, but I can't find it. I don't think the spec is in a good state now. We're still supposed to force balancing before spanners, but not if height is unconstrained? Not forcing balancing if height is unconstrained makes little or no sense in the first place, in my opinion, but if we really want to go there, it should apply before spanners, too. I think there's still time to turn back (or make improvements), since nobody has apparently updated their implementation yet. But I digress. :) With the current version of the spec (not supported by anyone, except Gecko's ongoing implementation work?), this is actually a non-issue. But do we really want the spec to say what it currently does? -- GitHub Notification of comment by mstensho Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3064#issuecomment-430746091 using your GitHub account
