I can kinda see both sides of this... I can imagine some cases where you might want to be able to e.g. have a viewport over a paginated book or something, and pan around it. But it's also true that multicol in general tries to “fit” its container, and in most cases capping it at the container height is what you want for the reader. Also, you can easily get the other behavior by using a wrapper element, whereas there are a number of cases where the multicol container can be auto-sized in ways that would be hard or impossible to account for if the author had to manually cap it using `max()` or something. So altogether... I think I might lean towards capping `column-height` by the content-box height by default... -- GitHub Notification of comment by fantasai Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12794#issuecomment-3294666621 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
