The CSS Working Group just discussed ``[css-anchor-position-2] Add a `fallback` feature for querying applied fallback for anchored elements``, and agreed to the following: * `RESOLVED: define a fallback container feature used in the anchored query function` <details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary> <JoshT> futhark: the next thing is to add something to query about these anchored elements<br> <JoshT> ... query the fallback position of the anchored element<br> <JoshT> ... to add a new anchored() function to the container root<br> <JoshT> ... a single feature for now to query the fallback pos used by the anchored element<br> <JoshT> ... this fallback pos is matching either the name from the fallback being applied or the position area<br> <JoshT> ... set by the position try fallbacka<br> <JoshT> ... the position area will match not the keyword but on the physical position, so you can use logical values to match<br> <JoshT> fantasai: overall seems reasonable. sad it has to be a container query rather than query on the item itself<br> <kizu> q+<br> <JoshT> futhark: the thing on the element itself is already limited to certain properties for anchored elements already, for the fallback styling<br> <astearns> ack kizu<br> <miriam> q+<br> <JoshT> kizu: only question about position area<br> <JoshT> ... should it match exactly or match partially<br> <JoshT> ... say you position stuff to the bottom, but it could be bottom-right, bottom-center<br> <JoshT> ... could you query this 'somewhere on the bottom' without the exact area<br> <JoshT> futhark: my proposal was to match exactly but that could make sense to have a syntax for matching some area<br> <JoshT> ... i'm not sure what the syntax would look like<br> <JoshT> fantasai: we discussed this when designing the matching syntax as a thought experiment at apple<br> <JoshT> ... I remember a matching syntax to query ???. I'll see if I can find anything<br> <JoshT> ... yeah we allow the keyword 'any' in some places<br> <JoshT> futhark: so you could say span left or something?<br> <kizu> I like `any`<br> <JoshT> fantasai: span left any. and it would be either left-top, left-bottom, etc<br> <fantasai> s/span left/span-left/<br> <JoshT> astearns: should we decide on that today or give more time for thought?<br> <JoshT> futhark: we could resolve on what I've proposed today and create an issue to add 'any'<br> <astearns> ack miriam<br> <JoshT> miriam: this might also belong in a separate issue, but wondering if there's other cases where we have container query syntax in a if function<br> <JoshT> ... does this have if function uses?<br> <JoshT> TabAtkins: no because this has to be on the container. can't query on the element itself for bad cyclic reasons<br> <JoshT> miriam: OK<br> <JoshT> PROPOSED: add anchor query function that can take fallbacks as params<br> <JoshT> futhark: it includes having a fallback container feature, not a fallback value directlu<br> <JoshT> PROPOSED: define a fallback container feature used in the anchor query function<br> <JoshT> PROPOSED: define a fallback container feature used in the anchored query function<br> <JoshT> RESOLVED: define a fallback container feature used in the anchored query function<br> <JoshT> astearns: who will open issue about any keyword?<br> <JoshT> futhark: can unless fantasai wants to<br> <JoshT> astearns: please do!<br> </details> -- GitHub Notification of comment by css-meeting-bot Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12391#issuecomment-3184698635 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
