X-Label Text Direction

[joshkarges]

Feature Proposal

When rotating the x-labels past 90 degrees, the text direction should change so that the beginning of the label is against the axes. Instead it looks like this:

I can't find an option in the documentation to flip this text direction. Is there a workaround for this?

Possible Implementation

options

{
  scales: {
    xAxes: {
      textDirection: 'forward' | 'backward',
      ...
    },
    ...
  ...
}
