Column-count is not working in Chrome

问题

I have a text splitted in 4 columns and it works perfectly in Safari I don't know why I can see just 2 columns in Google Chrome.

Tested with Chrome 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

#people{
 -webkit-column-count:4;
 -moz-column-count:4;
 column-count:4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
}

.keeptogether{
  display:inline-block;
  width:100%
}

Add display: flex; to your #people id in your css:

#people{
  display: flex;
 -webkit-column-count: 4; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
 -moz-column-count: 4; /* Firefox */
 column-count: 4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
}

.keeptogether{
  display:inline-block;
  width:100%;
}

Replace display:inline-block by display:block.

According to caniuse, for Chrome issue, you should add -webkit-perspective:1; on the container.

#people{
 -webkit-column-count:4;
 -moz-column-count:4;
 column-count:4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
 -webkit-perspective:1;
}

.keeptogether{
  display:block;
  width:100%
}

If you add display: flex; to #people ID, then it works fine in all the browsers and you don't need display:inline-block; for .keeptogether class.

You can check the code snippet:

#people {
 -webkit-column-count:4;
 -moz-column-count:4;
 column-count:4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 display: flex;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
}

.keeptogether {
  width:100%
}

Why do you need to give display: inline-block ? the concept of using column property is to divide your whole given content into equal width columns. So if you remove your inner-div, the all content gets properly aligned into given number of columns.

This also works, if you remove inline-block from your current code.

#people {
  -webkit-column-count: 4;
  -moz-column-count: 4;
  column-count: 4;
  -webkit-column-gap: .5em;
  -moz-column-gap: .5em;
  column-gap: .5em;
  padding-bottom: 2px;
  font-size: 18px;
  line-height: 21px;
}


/* you don't need this property
.keeptogether {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 100%;
}
*/

From my experience with this issue i found out -webkit needs to come last (Otherwise I guess it tries to use the non webkit and fails)

        column-count: 2; 
        -moz-column-count: 2; 
        -webkit-column-count: 2;

回答6:

I used a similar method for a WordPress theme. It looks pretty good in Firefox and displays two columns in place of four in Chromium/Chrome for full screen width.

When I increased the number of posts per page (bricks), the number of columns increased to fill up the space.

Chrome seems to render three or more bricks before graduating up to the next column.
