> At the moment, in the Safari implementation, a negative or zero value for text-underline-offset makes the underline disappear. This is unexpected. And, imho, not desired. This isn't what I observe in (Safari Tech Preview); a negative or zero value works as expected to move the line. However, Safari's skip-ink behavior means that it's likely to disappear "behind" the letters, particularly if you're using a thick underline, unless the offset is so negative that it actually moves entirely above the text. (And Safari doesn't support `text-decoration-skip-ink: none`, so you can't turn off the skipping for an "underline" that overlaps the body of the letters.) > I would prefer we remove any clamp, and expect Authors can be responsible. I agree. I don't think there's any real basis for deciding on a clamp value. If authors want to put the line far away from the text, or move an "underline" to be above, or whatever, that's their business, not ours. We may consider it unwise, but it's not CSS's job to decide on arbitrary limits to design. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jfkthame Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4059#issuecomment-506017630 using your GitHub account
