I think it's pretty clear, FWIW. The spec doesn't actually bring up align-items very much (which I think is a good thing). All of its mentions are in a single chunk (the property's definition), which says the following: # align-items sets the default alignment for all of the # flex container’s items, including anonymous flex # items. align-self allows this default alignment to be # overridden for individual flex items. http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox/#propdef-align-items That makes it pretty clear that align-items just sets the *default* value of another property (and the other property is what matters & influences the layout algorithm). ~DanielReceived on Monday, 19 May 2014 21:42:46 UTC
