Overflow

Angular Bootstrap 5 Overflow

Use these shorthand utilities for quickly configuring how content overflows an element.

Basic example

Adjust the overflow property on the fly with four default values and classes. These classes are not responsive by default.

This is an example of using .overflow-auto on an element with set width and height dimensions. By design, this content will vertically scroll.
This is an example of using .overflow-hidden on an element with set width and height dimensions.
This is an example of using .overflow-visible on an element with set width and height dimensions.
This is an example of using .overflow-scroll on an element with set width and height dimensions. 
        
            
            <div class="overflow-auto">...</div>
            <div class="overflow-hidden">...</div>
            <div class="overflow-visible">...</div>
            <div class="overflow-scroll">...</div>

Using Sass variables, you may customize the overflow utilities by changing the $overflows variable in _variables.scss.

More examples

Showing content that overflows

Hide or show overflowing content using the .overflow-visible or .overflow.hidden classes.

Overflow visible

Overflow hidden

        
            

                    <div class="overflow-visible">...</div>
                    <div class="overflow-hidden">...</div>

Scrolling if needed

Use .overflow-auto to add scrollbars to an element in the event that its content overflows the bounds of that element. Unlike .overflow-scroll, which always shows scrollbars, this utility will only show them if scrolling is necessary.

                <div class="overflow-auto">...</div>

Scrolling always

Use .overflow-scroll to add scrollbars to an element. Unlike .overflow-auto, which only shows scrollbars if they are necessary, this utility always shows them. Note that some operating systems (like macOS) hide unnecessary scrollbars regardless of this setting.

              <div class="overflow-scroll">...</div>

Scrolling horizontally always

Use .overflow-x-scroll to allow horizontal scrolling and always show scrollbars unless always-visible scrollbars are disabled by the operating system.

Lorem ipsum dolor, sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Atque animi autem cum assumenda perferendis

        
            

              <div class="overflow-x-scroll">...</div>

Scrolling vertically always

Use .overflow-y-scroll to allow vertical scrolling and always show scrollbars unless always-visible scrollbars are disabled by the operating system.

Lorem ipsum dolor, sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Atque animi autem cum assumenda perferendis

        
            

                <div class="overflow-y-scroll">...</div>
