I have a <ul> element as flex container with row direction. Each <li> element has a menu contained inside a div, that opens up towards the right when some event occurs.



The problem, is that from some <li> onwards, the menu flows outside the right side of the flex container boundaries.



What I want, is that the menu will know when to stretch rightward from its parent <li>, and when to stretch leftward, depending on whether enough space is still available on the right or not.



This is a skeleton of the problem scope:



<ul style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; flex-wrap: wrap; justify-content: flex-start; align-items: flex-start;">
<li ng-repeat="items-in-some-source">
<div>
<!-- some stuff -->
<div>
<!-- some other stuff -->
</div>
<div style="position:relative;" ng-include="some-menu-template.html"></div>
</div>
</li>
</ul>


This is the expected result, with menu closed on the top row, and some examples with an open menu on the following rows. Note how the <li id=D> element behaves, and also note that the number of <li> elements is dynamic:



enter image description here



This is what happens now, notice how <li id=D> overflows the flex container:



enter image description here



So, is there any way to achieve this using just css? I prefer not to use a Javascript solution for this.
