I'd like the "actions" dropdown menu on my lightning:datatable to appear above the component and other page elements so that it doesn't force the user to scroll down to see all of the options.
Does anyone know how I could achieve this?
Thanks.
Try adding this to your CSS.
.THIS .slds-scrollable_x
{overflow-y:visible!important;overflow-x:visible!important;}
