Overflow question about paper-datatable HOT 2 CLOSED

Regarding vertical overflow: Nope, this is not supported. There are two main reasons for this:

• It would only be theoretically possible with resize-behavior="fixed", a property that isn't entirely working yet ( #43 )
• If I would implement such a thing I should implement it with <iron-list> to make sure you don't get a huge DOM... however doing this would be... well, ridiculously hard. Simply put you would need to make your own <iron-list> and your own <table>... both pretty complex elements.

Regarding horizontal overflow: Per the official Material Design spec I attempt supporting two different resize behaviors. The default one is the one used by <table>'s naturally and should show a horizontal scrollbar if the table doesn't fit the viewport. The fixed option should simply overflow the content of the table and will not show a scrollbar. This mode isn't fully supported yet however (awaiting a fix on an external bug in Polymer). Additionally I hope to support a third mode at some point that will hide/show columns depending on the available space, which depends on #39 first.

Here is a link to both behaviors side by side: http://david-mulder.github.io/paper-datatable/components/paper-datatable/demo/resize-behavior.html (not linked from the menu of demo's yet till #43 gets fixed).

Considering this is a [question] and you haven't commeted in a week I will assume it's been answered.
