Hi there! I was looking at this test: http://hg.csswg.org/test/file/218b5e6fddbe/css-flexbox-1/flexbox-flex-direction-column.htm http://test.csswg.org/suites/css-flexbox-1_dev/nightly-unstable/html/flexbox-flex-direction-column.htm And I'm trying to understand why the behavior it expects is correct. Here is my reasoning: - We have min-width auto. Therefore, we need to calculate the min-content height - Because we have line-height: 40px, the min-content height is 40px - 40px > 38px, so the height property does not get applied - Now, we apply the algorithm in http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox/#min-size-auto clamped size: The computed flex-basis is auto (the default). So the clamped size is undefined content size: No min/max sizes. So content size is 40px, as mentioned above -> Each flex item has a content height of 40px, so a border-box height of 42px This is too high for the test. It expects exactly 40px of border-box height. Why is that correct? (Same question, of course, for css-flexbox-1/flexbox-flex-direction-column-reverse.htm) Thanks! -christian
