When filing an issue, please put the text “css-counter-styles” in the title, preferably like this: “[css-ui] …summary of comment…”. All issues and comments are archived, and there is also a historical archive." Please name the archive and give a hint to the mailinglist and that you read it! (Not everyone wants accounts everywhere in the world, definitely not for what can be said in a short email.) It remains unclear how to set the text where (e.g. is title = subject and is summary of comment = css-counter-styles?): ------------------ I already wrote this to the border-guys from whom you seem to inherit rules Your spec specifies that the outline-width is medium and the outline-style is none. This causes the (unneccessary) extra convention: "Computed value: absolute length; 0 if the outline style is none." In contrast, the property text-decoration-style defaults to solid, and the property text-decoration-line defaults to none. This is far more sane in two ways: 1) No neccessity for the above extra convention 2) The 'on/off-switch' for the decoration line is the line property instead of the style property, which is far more logical from my point of view. Because text-decoration-color is initially currentcolor, setting text-decoration-line to, say, underline gives a nice default underline of solid style in text color. That is good! I'd want this for outline as well! (Even though we can argue that the initial value for outline-color should be red.) Specify the initial value for width as none, the initial value for style as solid and the initial value for color as currentcolor and switching width to medium gives a nice default outline! 3) style:none is now a redundant value and might be dropped Regards, --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dennis Heuer <a href="mailto:einz@verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de?Subject=Re%3A%20%5Bcss-ui%5D%20css-counter-styles%20or%20outline&In-Reply-To=%3C20180114205317.ce3cfb45552fbc67398aa6e9%40verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de%3E&References=%3C20180114205317.ce3cfb45552fbc67398aa6e9%40verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de%3E">einz@verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de</a> </pre> <p class="received"><span class="heading">Received on</span> Sunday, 14 January 2018 20:04:58 UTC</p> </main>  <footer class="foot"> <nav id="navbarfoot"> <ul class="links hmenu_container"> <li><span class="heading">This message</span>: <span class="message_body"><a href="#start">Message body</a></span></li>  <li><span class="heading">Next message</span>: <a href="0041.html">Gérard Talbot: "Re: [css-multicol] some formatting problems in the document"</a></li> <li><span class="heading">Previous message</span>: <a href="0039.html">Dennis Heuer: "[css-multicol] width:medium and style:none initially???"</a></li>  <li><span class="heading">Next in thread</span>: <a href="0047.html">Florian Rivoal: "Re: [css-ui] css-counter-styles or outline"</a></li> <li id="replies"><span class="heading">Reply</span>: <a href="0047.html">Florian Rivoal: "Re: [css-ui] css-counter-styles or outline"</a></li> <li><span class="heading">Maybe reply</span>: <a href="0069.html">Dennis Heuer: "Re: [css-ui] css-counter-styles or outline"</a></li>  </ul> <ul class="links hmenu_container"> <li id="options3"><span class="heading">Mail actions</span>: <ul class="hmenu"><li><a href="mailto:www-style@w3.org?Subject=Re%3A%20%5Bcss-ui%5D%20css-counter-styles%20or%20outline&In-Reply-To=%3C20180114205317.ce3cfb45552fbc67398aa6e9%40verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de%3E&References=%3C20180114205317.ce3cfb45552fbc67398aa6e9%40verschwendbare-verweise.seinswende.de%3E">respond to this message</a></li> <li><a href="mailto:www-style@w3.org">mail a new topic</a></li></ul></li> <li><span class="heading">Contemporary messages sorted</span>: <ul class="hmenu"><li><a href="index.html#msg40">by date</a></li> <li><a href="thread.html#msg40">by thread</a></li> <li><a href="subject.html#msg40">by subject</a></li> <li><a href="author.html#msg40">by author</a></li> </ul></li> <li><span class="heading">Help</span>: <ul class="hmenu"> <li><a href="/Help/" rel="help">how to use the archives</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.w3.org/Search/Mail/Public/search?type-index=www-style&index-type=t">search the archives</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </nav>  <p class="colophon"> This archive was generated by <a href="https://github.com/hypermail-project/hypermail/">hypermail 3.0.0</a>: Saturday, 15 July 2023 03:17:36 UTC </p> </footer> </body> </html>
