html - overflow-y:visible not working when overflow-x:hidden is present

Question

(This question already has answers here): question from:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11520728/overflow-yvisible-not-working-when-overflow-xhidden-is-present

Answer 1

This likely has to do with the issue addressed here: CSS overflow-x: visible; and overflow-y: hidden; causing scrollbar issue

In short, when using visible for either overflow-x or overflow-y and something other than visible for the other, the visible value is interpreted as auto.
