overflow:hidden for #access in 2c-r-fixed?

I decided to copy/paste the layout from 2c-r-fixed.css into my child theme style.css (to save overriding) and noticed that that the dropdown menu stopped displaying the sub-menus.

It turned out that as default.css is normally imported after 2c-r-fixed.css, the overflow:visible in the former usually overrides overflow:hidden in the latter, so there's usually no problem until that part is copied into style.css:

default.css
```
#access {
    border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
    height:32px;
    font-size:13px;
    overflow:visible;
    z-index:100;
}
```
2c-r-fixed.css
```
#access {
    position:relative;
    overflow:hidden;
}
```
I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug but thought it might be worth posting about it.

hey there

i use the 2c-r-fixed.css all the time, and i put the code in my childtheme css too and have no problems at all with the menu, it displays just as normal.

you need to put the 2c-r-fixed.css as is near the top of the childtheme stylesheet.

copy the default css to your childtheme

then make a space in the css just above the header styles and below the a:hover...(see below, small section from default) . this way the 2c-r-fixed.css is used first.
```
a:link {
    color:#004B91;
}
a:visited {
    color:#743399;
}
a:active,
a:hover {
    color: #FF4B33;
}

/* =PASTE YOUR 2c-r-fixed.css HERE
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

/* =Header
-------------------------------------------------------------- */
#header {
    z-index:2;
}
#branding {
    padding:88px 0 44px 0;
}
```

@Jamie Mitchell: Thanks :) For some reason I'd not considered copying the default.css over to the childtheme stylesheet, but it does sound like a good idea!
