====== Default for flex-shrink when flex-grow is 0 in the shorthand ====== ---- dataentry ---- Spec_tags : css3-flexbox Owner_tags : tabatkins Status_tags : Closed Added_dt : 2012-05-17 Action : Approve the proposal? Issue_urls : Proposal_urls : ---- === Background === To address other issues, we changed the default for 'flex-shrink' from 0 to 1 during the F2F. === Problem Statement === The behavior of "flex: 0 ;" changes - it can now shrink, where before it couldn't. === Proposal(s) === ; Proposal A : flex-shrink always gets reset to 1, even if flex-grow is 0. ; Proposal B : Make an omitted flex-shrink default to 0 if the flex-grow is given as 0 in the flex shorthand. This issue ties in with the [[flex-initial-value]], whose outcome may affect what's sensible here.
