I don't think you'd want to set overflow, you'd want to set either visibility, display, or use positioning to push the element off the screen: display:none; | visibility:hidden; | position:absolute;left:-9999em; This solution would still render the links in the markup, but use CSS to hide or move them for *all* portlets. I'd recommend extending your DecorationRenderer to support your needs as mentioned previously. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4217895#...
