Summary: Initial-letters have been widely used in typographic printing for long. However, it is not handy to put initial-letters on web pages. Web developers/designers have suffered from doing massive math calculations while laying out a initial-letter through :first-letter pseudo element, and afterward, they may still bump into cross-browser issues. I'd like to implement this property to ease web authors' pain. Also, I believe this property should not be absence from the modern layout.
Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1223880 Spec.: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-inline/#initial-letter-styling Platform coverage: All platforms Preference behind which this will be implemented: layout.css.initial-letter.enabled DevTools bug: None needed, I think. Support in other browsers: So far, Safari is the only browser which supports this with -webkit- prefixed. I can't find a bug on both Chrome and Edge, so I assume there's no sign from them at the moment. -Jeremy Chen _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
