The effect of display:flex and justify-content is not just to align small items along the major axis, but also to wrap along the cross axis. I can’t find any information about why items are not flush together along the cross axis when they are wrapped!

justify-content as I get with {align-items:stretch}

Any idea how to accomplish this safely across devices?

Ideally I’d need to also be able to override {justify-content: flext-start} for example.

I’ve been using {justify-content: stretch} but the results are mixed.

.flex-container {
justify-content: center;
}

instead of

.flex-item {
justify-content: center;
}

But the usual pseudo-element clearfix causes problems with the justify-content: space-between declaration, cause it reacts as a additional flex-element. I.e. the space will distributet unevenly.
In this case we have to distribute the space manually (margin-x: auto;) or use another clearfix-method, which can have other issues.
Any other workarounds for that?

I’m using Chrome too, and space-evenly works great. I hope the other browsers support it soon, as I much prefer that look over space-around in my current project.

It also works in Chrome. I’m on version 60.0.3112.90 and justify-content: space-evenly works just fine.

As of that date, yep, you’re correct.

It seems to work in Firefox; however, I can’t find anything that explictly says this. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks.

In a typographic context, ‘Justified’ text is text is text that is adjusted so that the first and last items on a line are anchored left and right with the items in the middle distributed evenly.

The ‘space-between’ and ‘space-around’ properties would probably accurately show this in action but ‘flex-start’ and ‘flex-end’ properties have absolutely nothing to do with ‘justifying’.

It really bugs me when clients ask for copy to be ‘left justified’ when they actually mean ‘left aligned’.

Just me?

I tried to use “justify-content” on Sublime Text 2, but it seems not to work.
Do I have to upgrade my ST2 or is it simply impossible ?
Thanks in advance.

I found this was more easy to understand by playing a game with CSS editor.
