> padding-box, content-box aren't general enough to fix within the wider CSS box model. E.g. consider an element with scrollable overflow: > https://www.software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?saved=6857 > > In the above example the content-box of the element with shape-outside is technically larger than the element itself, but the specification doesn't (? i believe) mention how do deal with this. I'm not sure what you mean by this. padding-box is well-defined, and is not the same as the scrollable overflow, sure. So the result you get is well-defined, if a little weird. That said, I agree the use-cases for the lesser boxes seem pretty minimal; I think we just reused the box definitions because they were there. > There are a couple of sites which would have a large behaviour change if we'd remove this. However they'd have the same behaviour as if they had shape-outside:margin-box. What do you mean by this? That switching to margin-box would cause a large behavior change for them? -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3872#issuecomment-486361662 using your GitHub account
