Defines values for specifying that a formatting property is to inherit its parent's value or have it's value generated automatically. The INHERIT constant specifies that a property inherits its parent's value while the AUTO constant specifies that an internal algorithm automatically determine the property's value. As one example, you can set TextLayoutFormat.columnWidth using these values. Typically, a property's description indicates whether it accepts these constants.
