± From: Tab Atkins Jr. ± Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 2:48 PM ± ± distribute: ± +---------------------------+ ± |button button input| ± |button button| ± +---------------------------+ ± ± I mean, neither one's very great, but the justify seems *really* bad here. The distribute case ± looks way better when the last line has more than two entries in it: ± ± justify: ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± |button button button button button button| ± |button button button button | ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± ± distribute: ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± |button button button button button button| ± |button button button button| ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± ± I think justify is just *horrid* here. Ideally you'd like it to look something like this: ± ± flexgrid: ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± |button button button button button button| ± |button button button button | ± +--------------------------------------------------------+ ± ± (We're debating behavior at this point, not naming. We can use the 'distribute' behavior and ± call it 'justify', or vice versa.) This thread was confusing for me from the start. I first thought it is just about the name, but then there is a functional difference, defined I am not sure where... Of the options mentioned the one marked "distribute" makes more sense (it seems we are generally in agreement on that). Whatever it ends up doing though, for me personally "justify" seems a more natural naming - what I would try if I don't quire remember the syntax. Alex
