inline-size
CSS property · 4 supported, 0 partial, 16 unsupported across 21 clients
As of Sep 2, 2026, inline-size fails or degrades in 17 of 21 email clients, treat it as progressive enhancement, never structure.
- 2/7 webmail, 1/6 desktop, 1/8 mobile clients support inline-size fully.
- Unsupported in Gmail, Gmail Android, Gmail iOS, Outlook 365 and 12 more.
- Outlook Classic (Word engine, supported to at least 2029) does not fully support inline-size, and its replacement changes little here; see the deprecation diff.
- Across all clients, only 6 of 298 tracked HTML/CSS features render identically everywhere.
