The masonry-auto-flow CSS property modifies how items are placed when using masonry in CSS Grid Layout.

Syntax

/* Keyword values */
masonry-auto-flow: pack;
masonry-auto-flow: next;

masonry-auto-flow: definite-first;
masonry-auto-flow: next ordered;

/* Global values */
masonry-auto-flow: inherit;
masonry-auto-flow: initial;
masonry-auto-flow: unset;

This property may take one of two forms:

• Two keywords, for example next ordered.
