  14. # [01:35] <TabAtkins> fantasai: Thanks for finally giving a name to logical width and height! I'm still struggling to figure out exactly what order to compute things in flexbox, but at least it's easier to talk about now.

  17. # [01:50] <TabAtkins> fantasai: I'd like to chat with you about horizontal vs vertical layout. I'm wondering how much I can lean on Writing Modes defining how parallel and orthogonal flows work in the definition of Flexbox.
  18. # [01:51] <TabAtkins> Because a vertical flexbox seems to be *very* similar in behavior to a block of vertical text, in that its major direction is vertical.
  19. # [01:52] <TabAtkins> In general, the metaphor for flexbox layout is that the flexbox is a line and the flexbox items are words. This seems amenable to attack with the same tools that are used for vertical text.
  20. # [01:55] <kennyluck> wow... this is very interesting

  61. # [22:46] <TabAtkins> fantasai: Ping regarding orthogonal flows (see comments from yesterday).
  62. # [22:48] <TabAtkins> Specific question - take a horizontal flexbox where each flexbox item is filled with vertical text. Is there a smart way to talk about the preferred height of the items? I don't really want to make this case just grow to enormous lengths when the flexbox has auto height.
  63. # [22:48] <TabAtkins> The analogous case is a vertical flexbox where the children are horizontal, which has the same problem. Hrm.
  64. # [22:56] <TabAtkins> Looks like Moz and Webkit both treat block flexboxes as, well, blocks. Their width is automatically calculated as 'stretch'.
  65. # [22:57] <TabAtkins> And then inline flexboxes are fit-content.
