Disallow shorthand properties that override related longhand properties.
a { background-repeat: repeat; background: green; }
/** ↑
* This overrides the longhand property before it */
In almost every case, this is just an authorial oversight. For more about this behavior, see MDN's documentation of shorthand properties.
The following patterns are considered problems:
a {
padding-left: 10px;
padding: 20px;
}
a {
transition-property: opacity;
transition: opacity 1s linear;
}
a {
-webkit-transition-property: opacity;
-webkit-transition: opacity 1s linear;
}
a {
border-top-width: 1px;
top: 0;
bottom: 3px;
border: 2px solid blue;
}
The following patterns are not considered problems:
a { padding: 10px; padding-left: 20px; }
a { transition-property: opacity; } a { transition: opacity 1s linear; }
a { transition-property: opacity; -webkit-transition: opacity 1s linear; }
