Feature flags

A feature flag has been added to the overflow menu variant of menu buttons to improve accessibility and changes parts of its functionality, not its visual appearance. For more code-specific feature flag information, refer to the @carbon/react framework. Once the next major release (v12) is released in the future, this feature flag will become the default version of the component.

The enable-v12-overflowmenu flag improves accessibility by more closely following the APG pattern for Menu and supports all the new Menu primitives.

Live demo



      This live demo contains only a preview of functionality and styles available for this component. View the full demo on Storybook for additional information such as its version, controls, and API documentation.
