overflow-block

The overflow-block CSS property sets what shows when content overflows the block start and block end edges of a box. This may be nothing, a scroll bar, or the overflow content.

Note: The overflow-block property maps to overflow-y or overflow-x depending on the writing mode of the document.

Values: visible Content is not clipped and may be rendered outside the padding box’s block start and block end edges. hidden Content is clipped if necessary to fit the block dimension in the padding box. No scrollbars are provided. clip Overflow content is clipped at the element’s overflow clip edge that is defined using the overflow-clip-margin property. scroll Content is clipped if necessary to fit in the block dimension in the padding box. Browsers display scrollbars whether or not any content is actually clipped. (This prevents scrollbars from appearing or disappearing when the content changes.) Printers may still print overflowing content. auto Depends on the user agent. If content fits inside the padding box, it looks the same as visible, but still establishes a new block-formatting context.

Syntax example: overflow-block: visible;
