Chart.js is it possible to style the labels?

Question

I'm using the chart.js to display some long line charts with the following labels:

labels : ["2014","sem I","sem II","sem III","sem IV","2015","sem I","sem II","sem III","sem IV","2016","sem I","sem II","sem III","sem IV",]

All I want to know is if its possible to make only the years in bold for a better readability?

Hello from 2021, looks like ChartJS added a way to add your own html legend via plugin: https://www.chartjs.org/docs/3.6.0/samples/legend/html.html — Wompinalong, Feb 16 '22 at 02:46

I just need the years in bold or other color to differentiate from others – calculataur Apr 15 '15 at 12:48
I don't think the library has that option available. – Dagriel Apr 15 '15 at 12:51
I know I'm looking for a way to "extend" or "hack" the code. – calculataur Apr 15 '15 at 12:55
They use HTML5 canvas element to draw the charts, you could try edit the text in the canvas (it's not an easy task). See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15823328/html5-edit-text-on-the-canvas – Dagriel Apr 15 '15 at 13:07
Ok, I'll take a look, ty – calculataur Apr 15 '15 at 13:10
