As a more generalized problem: we are designing for fluid media when designing for the web, yet we lack a way to control how styles interpolate across that fluid media. Typography illustrates a specific need here as ensuring optimum readability is a function of changing sizing and spacing with changes in measure (width). Additionally the proportion between headings / body copy increases with measure. The optimal relationship is usually non-linear. HOWEVER, typography is not the only need. More fluid layout changes and media scaling may be desirable. @lynnandtonic designed her whole website around this interpolation approach in 2021: https://lynnandtonic.com/thoughts/entries/case-study-2021-refresh/ I love the idea of a `position-of` function (and don't think it should be clamped as you might want to query how far out of bounds something is). I proposed abstracting scroll timelines so timelines could be more general purpose a while back, and they could be bound to scroll, container width, or something else with a custom property. My strong opinion remains with needing more control over interpolation of styles with container inline size, not with the means to this end. -- GitHub Notification of comment by scottkellum Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6245#issuecomment-1714346253 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
