Component: Table cell-edit with p-calendar

[erber014]

Describe the bug

When using p-calendar in a p-table with cell-edit the calendar pop-up does not open up correctly. As can be seen in the above screenshot, the pop-up opens "inside" the table with scrollbars horizontally and vertically which partially obscures/hides the pop-up depending on how much initial space the table is taking up.

Environment

PrimeNG 17.6.0, modified stackblitz of Table-components cell-edit demo.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Click on a cell in the column farthest to the right (calendar). The pop-up where you can select a date opens "inside" the table, causing scrollbars to appear and hiding part of the pop-up.

Expected behavior

When clicking on a p-calendar inside a cell-editable p-table the pop-up should open "over" the table so it is fully visible/usable.

Can just mention that I have the same problem with dropdowns (haven't tried multiselects but this might not work well either).

You should add appendTo="body" to your calendar
