Adjust the `overflow` property on the fly with four default values and classes. These classes are not responsive by default.
<div class="bd-example d-md-flex">
<div class="overflow-auto p-3 mb-3 mb-md-0 me-md-3 bg-light" style="max-width: 260px; max-height: 100px;">
This is an example of using <code>.overflow-auto</code> on an element with set width and height dimensions. By design, this content will vertically scroll.
</div>
<div class="overflow-hidden p-3 mb-3 mb-md-0 me-md-3 bg-light" style="max-width: 260px; max-height: 100px;">
This is an example of using <code>.overflow-hidden</code> on an element with set width and height dimensions.
</div>
<div class="overflow-visible p-3 mb-3 mb-md-0 me-md-3 bg-light" style="max-width: 260px; max-height: 100px;">
This is an example of using <code>.overflow-visible</code> on an element with set width and height dimensions.
</div>
<div class="overflow-scroll p-3 bg-light" style="max-width: 260px; max-height: 100px;">
This is an example of using <code>.overflow-scroll</code> on an element with set width and height dimensions.
</div>
</div>
```html
<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`.
