Thanks for including me on this, and sorry for what seems like initial confusion in this issue. Just to clarify, I am not proposing the change the default bottom edge for all values to `alphabetic`. The point I am making in the [linked comment] is that when a user opts to trim to `cap` or `ex` that should be the outcome. Both of these terms are measured from what has been defined in CSS as the "alphabetic baseline", so setting either `cap` or `ex` and not having the correct bottom edge is actually misleading. I would propose that the outcome for single value text edges be as follows: ![Preview of CSS text-edge proposals](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/88771464-7a0f-4b21-924c-167e70b69fff) With the following updates to the value definitions in [the spec]: | Edge | Definition | | --- | --- | |`text`| Use the [text-over baseline] as the [over] edge and [text-under baseline] as the [under] edge. | |`cap`| Use the [cap-height baseline] as the [over] edge and [alphabetic baseline] as the [under] edge. | |`text`| Use the [x-height baseline] as the [over] edge and [alphabetic baseline] as the [under] edge. | [linked comment]: https://github.com/seek-oss/capsize/issues/205#issuecomment-2185365588 [the spec]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#text-edges [text-over baseline]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#text-over-baseline [text-under baseline]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#text-under-baseline [over]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-writing-modes-4/#over [under]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-writing-modes-4/#under [cap-height baseline]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#cap-height-baseline [x-height baseline]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#x-height-baseline [alphabetic baseline]: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline-3/#alphabetic-baseline -- GitHub Notification of comment by michaeltaranto Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10703#issuecomment-2282932140 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
