Hi fantasai & Tab, The new spec text about "min-[width|height]:auto" no longer seems to be specific to the main axis of the flex container. Is that intentional? In its previous life, "auto" only computed to the min-content size **in the main axis min-size property**. Quoting the old spec: # When used as the value of a flex item's min main size # property, this keyword indicates a minimum of the min-content size http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/CR-css3-flexbox-20120918/#min-size-auto However, I don't think the current spec has anything about different behavior in main vs. cross axis. If we want to preserve this as being a main-axis-specific thing, the spec probably needs some wording to clarify that. Current spec text is: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox/#min-size-auto Thanks, ~Daniel
