With reference to 7.8 Grid Definition Shorthand: the 'grid' property, which says

The grid property is a shorthand that sets all of the explicit grid properties (grid-template-rows, grid-template-columns, and grid-template-areas), all the implicit grid properties (grid-auto-rows, grid-auto-columns, and grid-auto-flow), and the gutter properties (grid-column-gap and grid-row-gap) in a single declaration.

The note below then states, “Also, the gutter properties are reset by this shorthand, even though they can’t be set by it.”

So, is it possible to set the gutter properties or not? If so, how? The grid-template syntax does not cater for setting of grid gaps.
