I propose to introduce a new property "content: frame(width, height)". What
does this mean? This means that the element will be scaled like graphic
element, the contents will be the same as that without the "content:
frame(width, height)". It is very necessary CSS3 property.
- Graphics elements (<img>, <canvas>, <video>) just change natural size.
- Other elements have original size (like graphics elements), and scaling as
graphical elements.
- Size of elements cannot changed by inner content (text).
Also i have alternative idea for new CSS property - "box-model: image(width,
height)" and "box-model: auto", instead of "content". I came up with this idea
for a reason, and in order to bring the behavior of graphic and conventional
together.
