Yes, it would make sense to honor 'column-fill: auto' even in unconstrained environments. One can achieve interesting effects, and one honors specified values (instead of ignoring them). If so, we would have, I believe: auto balance continous media, constrained columns fill balance continous media, unconstrained columns honor exlicit breaks balance continous media, overflow columns -- property has no effect -- paged media, all-but-last-pages balance balance paged media, last page fill balance Does this look right? -h&kon Håkon Wium Lie CTO °þe®ª howcome@opera.com http://people.opera.com/howcomeReceived on Tuesday, 13 August 2013 07:18:02 UTC
