[css-sizing-4] Can we Implement Different Values for Horizontal & Vertical Box?

[shyamkushwaha23]

Can we Implement Different Values for Horizontal & Vertical Box? Today I found a use case where if I could change only vertical box-sizing to content-box, I could solve my issue only via CSS. Though for now I have to use JS.

For different horizontal & vertical values, can we implement 2 values syntax?
E.g.: box-sizing: border-box content-box;
If we have 2 values first will be applied horizontally and second will be applied vertically.

box-sizing: border-box | content-box | padding-box?
why not padding-box is implemented?

Today I found a use case where if I could change only vertical box-sizing to content-box, I could solve my issue only via CSS. Though for now I have to use JS.

And could you please explain that use case?

why not padding-box is implemented?

padding-box was specified in an earlier version of the specification, though dropped due to missing implementation interest, see https://www.w3.org/TR/2015/CR-css-ui-3-20150707/#changes-since-2015-05 and f6b3530.

I guess that decision was also based on missing use cases. So if you can come up with one, it may be discussed again. Though for that you should open a separate issue.
