# Min/Max Width and Height

These properties set the maximum and minimum size constraints of a node.
They have higher priority than all other properties and will always be respected.
Constraints can be specified as either absolute pixel values or as percentages of their
[containing block's](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Containing_block) size. By default all these constraints are `undefined`.
