The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-gaps-1] Decorations between empty areas: default behaviors`, and agreed to the following: * `RESOLVED: Default Grid behavior for grid empty spaces is "all"` * `RESOLVED: Change the initial value to "normal", resolves similarly to the other property` <details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary> <TabAtkins> javierct: similar to previous, we discussed this earlier and want more feedback now for the default behavior<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: so for context, we have empty-areas behavior,<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: multicol currently the default beahvior is "between", only gaps between filled columns will show up<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: currently spec default is "all", which conflicts<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: two things to resolve.<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: first, should initial bheavior be "between" also for grid?<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: if yes, that's easy<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: if no, we might need an "auto" keyword<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: so we need to decide on whether grid's default bheavior is "all" or "between"<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: [shows example of "all" and "between" in variously-filled grids]<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: currently our default is "all", author feeedback suggests it's useful<br> <miriam> q+<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: but there was a lot of discussion about possibly wanting "between", the multicol behavior<br> <Rossen> ack miriam<br> <kbabbitt> +1 miriam<br> <TabAtkins> miriam: I think i've come around to "all", not becuase I think it's most often used, but becaus ei'm not sure there is a most often value. "all" is visible in an empty grid, which is useful visually<br> <TabAtkins> (i weakly agree)<br> <TabAtkins> Rossen: proposal for Grid's default beahvior is "all"<br> <TabAtkins> Rossen: objections?<br> <TabAtkins> RESOLVED: Default Grid behavior for grid empty spaces is "all"<br> <TabAtkins> javierct: so then the initial value needs to be "auto" so it can be "all" vs "between"<br> <TabAtkins> fantasai: should probably be "normal", we use that to vary gap insets too<br> <kbabbitt> sgtm<br> <TabAtkins> RESOLVED: Change the initial value to "normal", resolves similarly to the other property<br> </details> -- GitHub Notification of comment by css-meeting-bot Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/13477#issuecomment-4164624610 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
