Minutes Santa Clara F2F Part III 2014-10-28: Zoom Effects, Flexbox, :role(), Selectors 4, Fragmentations, Transforms, Text, Selections, Counter Styles
Zoom Effects
- maRakow presented his research and thoughts on splitting the layout and visual viewports. His slides are available here.
- There was support for his thoughts about clarifying the meaning of “viewport” when a spec isn’t specific, especially for the older specs. maRakow will make a list of references that need clarifying and send it to the mailing list.
- Though people didn’t want to define zoom behavior in such a way that it limits smart design, they were very much in favor of giving authors more controls to create those smart designs.
- Discussion about all these issues will continue on the mailing list.

Flexbox
- Resolved: alignment in Flexbox should depend on the value of flex-wrap (wrap or nowrap), not the number of lines that result.
- Most of the other issues will be addressed by the authors.

Selectors 4
- Resolved: unprefix

Fragmentations

Transforms
- smfr’s proposal for a new “3D rendering context” concept and Robert O’Callahan’s counter-proposal were discussed with a focus on the ‘preserve-3D’ property and how much memory would need to be allocated for smfr’s proposal.
- A point of particular concern was what the author’s expectation is for when 2D and 3D elements would intersect when the 3D item is rotated.
- There was discussion of inheriting transform-style.
- Those interested in Transforms will look over smfr’s results and discuss further.
