 AMP documents additionally guarantee layout stability to the degree that it manages when components may or may not resize on the page. Because of this, the `IframeEmbed` component takes a `requestResize` prop where a different flow of logic may be passed in by the publisher to respond to measure events.
 
-In your AMP element implementation, you will use `requestResize` to pass in the `attemptChangeHeight` method that is extended from the `BaseElement` class:

 ```
 
+For components that request a resize that is denied by the AMP runtime, publishers are recommended to use an `overflow` element to solicit user interaction in order to resize as a layout stability best-practice.
+
+This information can be provided in the component documentation with an exemplary code sample:
+
+```html
+<amp-fantastic-embed layout="fixed" width="400" height="200">
+  <button overflow>Click me to load the full iframed content!</button>
+</amp-fantastic-embed>
+<p>Content below the component.</p>
+```
+
 #### Passing or overriding props
 
 In the previous example, props received from the `ProxyIframeEmbed` are implicitly set through `...rest`. If we set each explicitly, we see the `HTMLIframeElement` attributes handled.
