With the latest version of ui-grid (v3.0.0-rc.16) it is possible to turn the horizontal and vertical scrollbar off seperately. I got this working by exchanging
A workaround for this (since WHEN_NEEDED is currently disabled) is to set enableHorizontalScrollbar: 0
on your gridOptions and then in your stylesheet have the following:
.ui-grid .ui-grid-render-container-body .ui-grid-viewport {
overflow-x: auto !important;
}
Now the horizontal scroll bar only displays when needed.
