I've been meaning to request aspect ratios for elements for awhile now. Currently to make responsive sprited elements I have to do the padding hack (padding percentages being based on width) on a pseudo element inside. It's grossly over complicated. I am all about a way to set something's aspect ratio, which would also allow people to set height to equal width (perhaps the keyword "square" could be used!). It's would be useful in many more situations. On Wed, Apr 20, 2016 at 6:29 AM Matthew Robb <matthewwrobb@gmail.com> wrote: > It would be great if size could be tied into aspect ratio.
