`text-decoration-skip-spaces`

[ddbeck]

Specification

https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-decor-4/#text-decoration-skip-spaces-property

Description

Cribbing from Chrome Status here:

The text-decoration-skip-spaces CSS property controls whether text decoration lines (underlines, overlines, line-throughs, etc.) skip over whitespace characters. This allows authors to prevent decorations from being drawn under spaces, which is often more visually appealing.

I'd probably write this in our style as:

The text-decoration-skip-spaces CSS property sets whether text decoration lines (such as underlines and overlines) skip over whitespace characters. You can use this to prevent decorations from being drawn under spaces, which is sometimes more visually appealing.

Documentation

None, best as I can tell.
