When implementing the Tabs component in Chakra UI version 2, I encountered an issue where the content overflows instead of being scrollable:
function App() {
return (
<ChakraProvider>
<Box
width={300}
height={300}
borderWidth={2}
borderRadius="lg"
margin={4}
padding={2}
>
<Flex direction="column">
<Box flex="1">
<Tabs height="full" display="flex" flexDirection="column">
<TabList>
<Tab>Tab 1</Tab>
<Tab>Tab 2</Tab>
</TabList>
<TabPanels overflowY="scroll">
<TabPanel>
<Text>Content for Tab 1</Text>
</TabPanel>
<TabPanel>
<LoremIpsum />
</TabPanel>
</TabPanels>
</Tabs>
</Box>
</Flex>
</Box>
</ChakraProvider>
);
}
The above code snippet demonstrates the issue visually.

To resolve this problem, removing the 'Flex' and inner 'Box' components surrounding the 'Tabs' component seems to fix the overflow:
function App() {
return (
<ChakraProvider>
<Box
width={300}
height={300}
borderWidth={2}
borderRadius="lg"
margin={4}
padding={2}
>
<Tabs height="full" display="flex" flexDirection="column">
<TabList>
<Tab>Tab 1</Tab>
<Tab>Tab 2</Tab>
</TabList>
<TabPanels overflowY="scroll">
<TabPanel>
<Text>Content for Tab 1</Text>
</TabPanel>
<TabPanel>
<LoremIpsum />
</TabPanel>
</TabPanels>
</Tabs>
</Box>
</ChakraProvider>
);
}

However, as mentioned, these additional components are essential in my code structure and cannot be removed. How can I address this issue without eliminating them?
