- # [17:16] <sylvaing> Next topic: CSS3 Fonts
- # [17:16] <sylvaing> jdaggett: I posted a draft update including opentype font feature support following the f2f discussion last year
- # [17:16] <jdaggett_home> http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/featurelist.htm
- # [17:17] <sylvaing> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0244.html
- # [17:17] * Quits: shepazu (schepers@128.30.52.169) (Quit: Core Breach)
- # [17:17] <jdaggett_home> http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-fonts/#font-variant-ligatures-prop
- # [17:17] <sylvaing> There are lot of opentype features
- # [17:18] <sylvaing> this proposal groups these features in compound properties; there is a granularity trade-off in that you pick a set of features
- # [17:18] <jdaggett_home> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Mar/0098.html
- # [17:18] <sylvaing> jdaggett: Sergey Malkin preferred thee features to be exposed as individual properties
- # [17:18] <sylvaing> jdaggett: this would result in a lot of properties
- # [17:19] <sylvaing> fantasai: I think you've done a good job grouping related properties
- # [17:19] <sylvaing> fantasai: there is a lot of overhead in having a lot of properties for browsers and authors.
- # [17:19] <sylvaing> fantasai: and we may still end up with compound/shorthand properties in the future
- # [17:20] <fantasai> s/can/
- # [17:20] <fantasai> if needed
- # [17:21] <sylvaing> jdagett (answering Tab): for people who have Macs, this is easy to test using TextEdit. The font panel shows you available font features
- # [17:21] <jdaggett_home> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0244.html
- # [17:21] <sylvaing> jdaggett: some font features are specific to a single font. this could have side-effects in a fallback situation
- # [17:22] <sylvaing> jdagett: this primarily affects those OT style settings that use a number (styleset() )
- # [17:22] <sylvaing> jdaggett: the other properties do apply across fonts
- # [17:22] * sylvaing has been misspelling john's name all along. grmph.
- # [17:23] <dbaron> s/jdagett/jdaggett/g
- # [17:23] <sylvaing> jdaggett: cslye: it's not just that some features apply only to one font, it's that styleset x in font B might look completely different and unrelated to styleset x in font A
- # [17:24] <sylvaing> jdaggett: i think the spec could use more background on the rendering model.
- # [17:25] * Joins: smfr (smfr@17.203.14.12)
- # [17:25] <plinss> zakim, aagg is smfr
- # [17:25] <Zakim> +smfr; got it
- # [17:25] <dbaron> Where is the wording in the spec about the precedence? (Or is it not there yet?)
- # [17:26] * sylvaing missed some of the discussion due to sound issues
- # [17:26] <jdaggett_home> dbaron: section 7
- # [17:27] * Quits: dydz (dydz@76.199.100.248) (Quit: dydz)
- # [17:28] <fantasai> fantasai: I think it's a good idea to have font-variant-alternates on the @font-face, to allow -font-specific variant selection
- # [17:28] <fantasai> fantasai: would we still have these numeric selections in the property?
- # [17:28] <fantasai> jdaggett: yes
- # [17:28] <dbaron> jdaggett_home, section 7 doesn't seem clear whether the order it gives is highest-to-lowest or lowest-to-highest precedence
- # [17:29] <sylvaing> ?: the odds of falling back to a font with a competing equivalent styleset are lower. authors will go from most to least specific.
- # [17:29] <fantasai> fantasai: I'm concerned that authors will use the numeric selections on the property because it's easier
- # [17:29] <fantasai> fantasai: instead of tying it to the font in @font-face
- # [17:30] <sylvaing> jdaggett: it's actually difficult to come up with a realistic scenario where this would work
- # [17:31] <sylvaing> cslye: I understood stylesets to be a power user feature.
- # [17:31] <sylvaing> fantasai: this doesn't prevent breakage, it only limits its frequency
- # [17:31] <sylvaing> jdaggett: fallback will still happen
- # [17:32] <sylvaing> fantasai: I am still concerned in applying this to all fonts
- # [17:33] <sylvaing> plinss: I agree that this may not be a problem in the short term but it may be in the future. we should address these issues now
- # [17:33] <jdaggett_home> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0245.html
- # [17:34] <sylvaing> jdaggett: one of the features that is not in the spec already relates to sub/superscript support
- # [17:35] <sylvaing> jdaggett: OT can support a variant glyph suitable for sub/superscript resizing. it's also designed to look and feel like the rest of the text in that context
- # [17:35] <sylvaing> jdaggett: it's analogous to real smallcaps vs. synthesized smallcaps
- # [17:36] <jdaggett_home> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0247.html
- # [17:36] <TabAtkins> character-transform: super|sub
- # [17:36] * bradk is unable to see much in TextEdit that shows additional OpenType font features. Found ligatures in Arial, but the checkbox doesn't have any effect of fi or ffi.
- # [17:40] <glazou> Zakim, mute me
- # [17:40] <Zakim> glazou should now be muted
- # [17:41] <sylvaing> jdaggett/fantasai/tab: we need to way to use this OT feature if the glyphs are available, but simulate it with vertical-align:super when not.
- # [17:42] <fantasai> that's what Tab's proposal is
- # [17:42] <fantasai> my comment was that the property Tab proposed should also reset vertical-align and font-size to their initial values at parsetime
- # [17:42] <fantasai> the same way a shorthand does
- # [17:45] <sylvaing> jdaggett: also, it is hard for the spec to be format-agnostic i.e. not have a dependency on OT at this point
- # [17:45] <sylvaing> dbaron: there is a difference between spec and the test suite. The spec may apply to multiple formats but the test suite does not cover them all.
- # [17:45] <sylvaing> fantasai: for other formats, testcases can be submitted for conformance using that format
- # [17:46] * sylvaing has had a hard time following today.
- # [17:46] <fantasai> Can use examples to illustrate spec with OT-specific features
- # [17:46] <glazou> Zakim, unmute me
- # [17:46] <Zakim> glazou should no longer be muted
- # [17:46] <fantasai> For example, the specs don't require support for HTML or XML. You could use some other tree-based document format and style it with CSS
- # [17:47] <sylvaing> jdaggett: I will do another edit in the next week
- # [17:47] <fantasai> But the test suite is written assuming support for XML or HTML
- # [17:47] * Quits: anne (annevk@88.131.66.80) (Client exited)
- # [17:47] <fantasai> And all our examples in the specs use XML or HTML
- # [17:47] * Joins: anne (annevk@88.131.66.80)
- # [17:48] <sylvaing> Tab: I had imagined gradients to be infinite but it's not how Mozilla implemented it
- # [17:48] <fantasai> Topic: Extent of Gradients in Backgrounds
- # [17:48] <sylvaing> dbaron: we changed it based on what we thought the spec said
- # [17:49] <sylvaing> Tab: I would like to specify that the gradient be 'chopped' to the box and the extend keyword would make the gradient infinite
- # [17:50] <sylvaing> fantasai: SVG supports this as well
- # [17:50] <fantasai> s/supports/could support/
- # [17:50] <fantasai> Right now content in SVG is clipped to the SVG viewport
- # [17:50] <sylvaing> dbaron: I'd like to hear from Roc
- # [17:50] <fantasai> extend could mean don't clip
- # [17:50] <fantasai> So anything painted outside the viewport box would show up
- # [17:51] <fantasai> Tab: Anybody else implemented gradients?
- # [17:51] <fantasai> Simon: Webkit has the old syntax. I agree extend would be useful in many cases, and should be the default
- # [17:52] * sylvaing definitely leaves minutes to Elika. VoIP breaking down.
- # [17:52] <fantasai> Brad says something about patterns
- # [17:52] * fantasai ok
- # [17:52] <fantasai> Scribenick: fantasai
- # [17:52] * sylvaing thx!
- # [17:52] * fantasai has lost track of the conversation tho!
- # [17:53] <TabAtkins> Scribenick: TabAtkins
- # [17:54] <dbaron> TabAtkins, Is there a www-style message summarizing the background-repeat: extend proposal?
- # [17:54] <dbaron> TabAtkins, I see only http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-css-wg/2010JanMar/0101.html
- # [17:54] <TabAtkins> bradk: I think that the infinite-version of gradients is more useful, and should be the default, and then have a keyword to change it to the finite version.
- # [17:55] <TabAtkins> TabAtkins: That's possible, but the SVG use-case for extend (popping it out of the viewbox) is still potentially useful. We can experiment with this.
- # [17:55] * jdaggett_home argh, cut off
- # [17:55] <fantasai> Sylvain explains his concern about background-clip
- # [17:55] <fantasai> Sylvain: About how you can't specify origin and clip in the shorthand
- # [17:55] * Zakim fantasai, you typed too many words without commas; I suspect you forgot to start with 'to ...'
- # [17:55] <TabAtkins> dbaron: No, let me forward that mail to www-style.
- # [17:55] <fantasai> Sylvain: And there is no content-box value on background-clip
- # [17:55] * jdaggett_home heading to bed, night all
- # [17:56] <fantasai> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Mar/0021.html
- # [17:56] <Zakim> -jdaggett
- # [17:56] <fantasai> Sylvain: I don't think we should exclude the people who want to set background-clip to the content box
- # [17:57] <fantasai> proposed syntax: Change <bg-origin> in shorthand to <bg-origin>{1,2}
- # [17:58] <fantasai> Bert: I don't think clipping to the content box is very useful, but I don't see it's harmful either
- # [17:58] <fantasai> Sylvain: I don't see why it wouldn't be useful to have separate backgrounds for the border, padding, and content areas
- # [17:58] <fantasai> Brad: I agree
- # [17:59] <fantasai> Tab: Would be more useful with multiple backgrounds
- # [18:00] <fantasai> Brad: I don't like the proposed background shorthand syntax
- # [18:00] <fantasai> fantasai: I'm strongly in favor of my proposal
- # [18:00] <fantasai> fantasai: I really don't want to use a slash unless it's absolutely necessary, and it's not necessary here
- # [18:00] * sylvaing hope he sounds clearer than he hears at the other end.
- # [18:00] * TabAtkins sylvaing, yeah, we can hear you well.
- # [18:01] <fantasai> Daniel: From a parsing point of view the slash is very ugly
