Great question. It seems very reasonable to have a mode like this. The actual calculation of number of columns is part of shrink-to-fit calculation (currently left undefined). Perhaps 'shink-to-fit' definition should include this as a special case, like this if height and column width are specified, srnik-to-fit width should be calculated to produce exactly as many columns as needed to fit content. Would that work? -----Original Message----- From: www-style-request@w3.org [mailto:www-style-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Ishii Koji Sent: Friday, August 27, 2010 12:56 AM To: www-style@w3.org Subject: [css3-multicol] Multi-column layout with height set On multi-column layout document, could I ask what would happen if: * width:auto * height:<a fixed value> * column-count:auto * column-width:<a fixed value> Given the height has a value, a logical thinking gave me a thought that it would extend the number of columns as much as the content goes. But the pseudo-algorithm http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-multicol/#pseudo-algorithm does not seem to cover such case. Isn't this supposed to work this way?
