<pre>Hello,
I've the nightly build on my iPad and an older version of iOS too, so I'm assuming this bug has been there for long (Thus the risk of repeating the issue, but I didn't find it).
Seems like `vw` and `vh` units are miscalculated inside of an iframe each time you change the orientation of the device. Happens both on iPhone & iPad.
Here's the test case and it's <a href="<a href="https://bubbl.in/book/official-handbook-by-marvin-danig/4">https://bubbl.in/book/official-handbook-by-marvin-danig/4</a>">live demo</a>:
HTML:
Inside
<iframe>
<head>
// style here.
</head>
<body>
<div class="leaf">
<div class="inner">

</div>
</blockquote>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</iframe>
CSS:
@import url(//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=EB+Garamond);
body {
margin: 0 0;
overflow: hidden;
color: #fff;
font-size: 3.5vw;
font-family: 'EB Garamond', serif;
background-image: url(//raw.githubusercontent.com/bubblin/Official-Handbook/master/images/bertrand-page-5.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 100% 100%;
height: 100vh;
width: 100vw;
}
.inner {
width: 70vw;
float: right;
padding: 3vw;
}
cite {
font-style: oblique;
font-size: 3vw;
}
.right {
float: right;
}
a {
color: #00ffaa;
outline: 0 none;
text-decoration: none;
text-rendering: optimizelegibility;
}
a:focus,
a:active,
a:hover {
outline: 0 none;
text-shadow: 0 0 2px #0cf;
}
a:active {
padding-top: 2px;
}
Now if you change the orientation of the screen it appears that iOS continues to calculate the vw/vh even after rendering the oversized context. Or it calculates the viewport width and height before the iframe itself is given its final reoriented size.</pre>
