overflow-clip-margin
The overflow-clip-margin
CSS property determines how far outside its bounds an element with overflow: clip
may be painted before being clipped. The bound defined by this property is called the overflow clip edge of the box.
Syntax
css
/* <length> values */
overflow-clip-margin: 20px;
overflow-clip-margin: 1em;
/* <visual-box> | <length> */
overflow-clip-margin: content-box 5px;
/* Global values */
overflow-clip-margin: inherit;
overflow-clip-margin: initial;
overflow-clip-margin: revert;
overflow-clip-margin: revert-layer;
overflow-clip-margin: unset;
The <visual-box>
value, which defaults to padding-box
, specifies the box edge to use as the overflow clip edge origin. The <length>
value specified in overflow-clip-margin
must be nonnegative.
Note: If the element does not have overflow: clip
then this property will be ignored.
