You can use

Answer 2

As I commented, this is a known issue inside an ng-grid cell. I fixed this by setting cellClass in the column definition to this:

cellClass: 'cellToolTip'

And the css:

.cellToolTip {
    overflow: visible;
}

Here is a plunker that shows the tooltip. However, the tooltip is not positioned exactly right. :)

EDIT: Adding this to the .tooltip style fixed the positioning problem, but I'm not sure why in Plunker I had to do this. In my own code, this was not necessary:

.tooltip {
  top: 0 !important;
}

Here is a new plunker that is working.
