Hello everyone,

in perspective I have a view in which I have simply inserted a table with many columns. Testing this view in preview mode, the horizontal scrollbar is displayed correctly, and I can see all the columns.

I then inserted the table into an embedded view, and in this way, the horizontal scrollbar disappears. I have tried several things without success. What could I try to do?

Thanks for the support.

Normally the components have a parameter called something like "overflow". If you have set it to `hidden` it means that the _extra_ components that gets out of it are not shown.

Try it setting it to `scroll`, and it should appear. Not on the table though.

I try to change the overflow settings in the components with no results. The point is that if I set to `scroll` it works on the vertical scrollbar.

You can try changing the embedded view’s overflow property if you haven’t done so already (not the table component’s). Also, if you’re using flex containers - are they set in column or row formation?

Thanks for the suggestions, playing with the flex containers settings solve the problem.

I’m not sure if this counts as unrelated, but is there a way that works on a table?
