`CLIP_H` Clip horizontally but extend the canvas's clip region vertically if necessary.
`CLIP_V` Clip vertically but extend the canvas's clip region horizontally if necessary.
`HIDDEN` Content that extends beyond the widget's width or height is clipped (hidden).

- Enum Constant Detail
  - VISIBLE
```
public static final Overflow VISIBLE
```
    Content that extends beyond the widget's width or height is displayed. Note: To have the content be sized only by the drawn size of the content set the overflow to be Canvas.VISIBLE and specify a small size, allowing the size to expand to the size required by the content. Leaving the width / height for the widget undefined will use the default value of 100, and setting the size to zero may cause the widget not to draw.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "visible".
  - HIDDEN
```
public static final Overflow HIDDEN
```
    Content that extends beyond the widget's width or height is clipped (hidden).
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "hidden".
  - AUTO
```
public static final Overflow AUTO
```
    Horizontal and/or vertical scrollbars are displayed only if necessary. Content that extends beyond the remaining visible area is clipped.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "auto".
  - SCROLL
```
public static final Overflow SCROLL
```
    Horizontal and vertical scrollbars are always drawn inside the widget. Content that extends beyond the remaining visible area is clipped, and can be accessed via scrolling.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "scroll".
  - CLIP_H
```
public static final Overflow CLIP_H
```
    Clip horizontally but extend the canvas's clip region vertically if necessary.
    Note: only supported for specific widget subclasses.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "clip-h".
  - CLIP_V
```
public static final Overflow CLIP_V
```
    Clip vertically but extend the canvas's clip region horizontally if necessary.
    Note: only supported for specific widget subclasses.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "clip-v".
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static Overflow[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (Overflow c : Overflow.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static Overflow valueOf(java.lang.String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getValue
```
public java.lang.String getValue()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getValue in interface ValueEnum
