# declaration-block-no-redundant-longhand-properties

Disallow longhand properties that can be combined into one shorthand property.

```css
  a {
    padding-top: 1px;
    padding-right: 2px;
    padding-bottom: 3px;
    padding-left: 4px; }
/** ↑
 *  These longhand properties */
```

The longhand properties in the example above can be more concisely written as:

```css
a {
  padding: 1px 2px 3px 4px;
}
```

This rule will only warn if you've used the longhand equivalent of *all* the properties that the shorthand will set.

This rule warns when the following shorthand properties can be used:

-   `padding`
-   `margin`
-   `background`
-   `font`
-   `border`
-   `border-top`
-   `border-bottom`
-   `border-left`
-   `border-right`
-   `border-width`
-   `border-style`
-   `border-color`
-   `border-radius`
-   `transition`
