How the calculation works
Pixels = entered percentage × containing size ÷ 100. VW uses entered viewport width. CSS percentages depend on the specific property and containing block; use that property’s actual basis rather than assuming every percentage is viewport-relative. Counts and dimensions use the declared rounding convention; other numbers display up to three decimal places where applicable. Nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. Durations round to the nearest second; nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. File-size output units are decimal. Changing an input label does not convert filled values.
