Description

I am trying inject custom filters (Angualr ui-select controls) using filterHeaderTemplate property. Filter controls are getting rendered successfully but facing UI issues.

Filter controls are not visible properly.

As control is rendering in "ui-grid-header-canvas" element, because of overflow-hidden property it is happening.

But, when I added following styles

.ui-grid-header-viewport { overflow: visible; }

.ui-grid-top-panel { overflow: visible; }

.ui-grid-cell > .ui-grid-cell-contents { overflow: visible; }

grid becomes

Is there any way where it can be rendered properly?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the CSS overflow property on ui grid header canvas and related elements to understand why custom filter templates are clipped. Check how filterHeaderTemplate is rendered and if there is a way to position it without breaking the grid layout.
