Positioning an icon on the border of a "dynamic" div

Context

I'm trying to show an icon icon-delete-2a.png on the border of a div.

Related issues

Several other people asked about this, but unfortunately, the proposed solutions (setting position: relative; on the parent and setting position: absolute; z-index: 1 on the child) didn't seem to resolve my issue. See:

  1. CSS - Add icon on left of border with relative position
  2. z-index not working with fixed positioning
  3. Position div on the border of another div

Minimal Working Example

.useritem {
  position: relative;
  height: 15.625px;
  padding-left: 6.25px;
  padding-right: 6.25px;
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
  font-size: 10px;
  font-weight: 400;
  line-height: 1.5;
  color: #ffffff;
  background: #ff0000;
  /* Center slide text vertically */
  align-items: center;
  border: 1px solid #ff0000;
  border-radius: 10px;
  margin-bottom: 1px;
  margin-right: 3px;
  overflow: auto;
  word-wrap: break-word;
}

.icon_delete {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 7.5px;
  left: 20px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  z-index: 1;
}

.useritem:focus {
  background: #ffffff;
  color: #000000;       
  border-radius: 10px;
  border: 1px solid #000000;
}

[contenteditable] {
  outline: 0px solid transparent;
}
<body>
<div class="useritems">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="useritem" id="Location_Explore_UserItem_00" contenteditable="true" style="border: 2px solid black; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Test<img class="icon_delete" src="https://i.ibb.co/jTQckJm/icon-delete-2a.png" width="15" height="15">
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
</body>

This happens because of overflow attribute. Set the overflow value to initial or scroll on .useritem and you will see the icon outside.

.useritem {
  position: relative;
  height: 15.625px;
  padding-left: 6.25px;
  padding-right: 6.25px;
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
  font-size: 10px;
  font-weight: 400;
  line-height: 1.5;
  color: #ffffff;
  background: #ff0000;
  /* Center slide text vertically */
  align-items: center;
  border: 1px solid #ff0000;
  border-radius: 10px;
  margin-bottom: 1px;
  margin-right: 3px;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  
  overflow: initial;
}

.icon_delete {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 7.5px;
  right: -8px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  z-index: 1;
}

.useritem:focus {
  background: #ffffff;
  color: #000000;       
  border-radius: 10px;
  border: 1px solid #000000;
}

[contenteditable] {
  outline: 0px solid transparent;
}
<body>
<div class="useritems">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="useritem" id="Location_Explore_UserItem_00" contenteditable="true" style="border: 2px solid black; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Test<img class="icon_delete" src="https://i.ibb.co/jTQckJm/icon-delete-2a.png" width="15" height="15">
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
</body>

You have used "overflow" css that's why it's not showing. Remove overflow css you can see your icon position.
