text-decoration-thickness - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets 编辑

The text-decoration-thickness CSS property sets the stroke thickness of the decoration line that is used on text in an element, such as a line-through, underline, or overline.

Syntax

/* Single keyword */
text-decoration-thickness: auto;
text-decoration-thickness: from-font;

/* length */
text-decoration-thickness: 0.1em;
text-decoration-thickness: 3px;

/* percentage */
text-decoration-thickness: 10%;

/* Global values */
text-decoration-thickness: inherit;
text-decoration-thickness: initial;
text-decoration-thickness: unset;

Values

auto

The browser chooses an appropriate width for the text decoration line.

from-font

If the font file includes information about a preferred thickness, use that value. If the font file doesn't include this information, behave as if auto was set, with the browser choosing an appropriate thickness.

<length>

Specifies the thickness of the text decoration line as a <length>, overriding the font file suggestion or the browser default.

<percentage>

Specifies the thickness of the text decoration line as a <percentage> of 1em in the current font. A percentage inherits as a relative value, and so therefore scales with changes in the font. The browser must use a minimum of 1 device pixel. For a given application of this property, the thickness is constant across the whole box it is applied to, even if there are child elements with a different font size.
