How can I fix the persistent overflow issue on the right side phone asset on the "work - Abroad" page in Webflow?

TL;DR
  • Check element widths and positions to ensure alignment and set element widths within container limits.
  • Set overflow property to hidden or auto in the style panel to contain content.
  • Examine flexbox and grid settings for issues with element growth and area sizing.
  • Adjust margins and paddings to prevent excessive spacing that leads to overflow.
  • Inspect responsiveness across devices and adjust sizes as needed.
  • Review any custom code for potential layout disruptions.

The persistent overflow issue on the "work - Abroad" page's phone asset may be due to misaligned elements or excessive widths. Follow the steps below to resolve this issue:

1. Check Element Widths and Positions

  • Inspect the Widths: Ensure no element has a width exceeding 100% of its container. Check "Set To" and "Fixed" width settings.
  • Positioning: Double check that the phone asset isn’t positioned outside the expected boundary of the page.

2. Overflow Property

  • Set Overflow: Ensure the parent container or section has its overflow set to hidden. This can prevent content from spilling out.
  • Adjust Settings: Go to the Style panel and under the Overflow option, set it to hidden or auto, depending on your design.

3. Flexbox and Grid Layouts

  • Inspect Flexbox Settings: If a flexbox model is used, verify that no child elements have their flex-grow property set incorrectly.
  • Grid Issues: Check grid areas for incorrect sizing that might push other elements out.

4. Check Margins and Paddings

  • Inspect Spacing: Large margins or paddings on the sides of the phone asset might cause the overflow. Adjust them to more reasonable values.
  • Negative Margins: Ensure no negative margins are pushing elements off-screen.

5. Responsiveness

  • Mobile Views: Switch to tablet and phone views in Webflow and inspect the phone asset. Adjust sizes as necessary to maintain consistency across breakpoints.

6. Custom Code

  • Inspect Custom Code: Check any custom code applied on the page that might affect layout properties.

Summary

To fix the overflow issue, ensure that all elements have widths set to fit within their containers, adjust overflow settings, and check layout properties across different devices. If custom code causes the problem, revise the code to prevent overflow.
