Cannot align chart description on left instead of right

[dbrisinda]

Trying to align the chart description text to the lower left of the chart instead of the default lower right of the chart, but neither of these work. Text stays on right, and then behaves badly (truncated).

self.chartView.descriptionTextAlign = NSTextAlignmentLeft;

and

self.chartView.chartDescription.textAlign = NSTextAlignmentLeft;

did you set _chartView.chartDescription.enabled = YES;?

Yes. For clarification, the description text is showing up, but it's not being aligned to the left when that alignment mode is indicated.

please post a screenshot. I suspect your drawing rect is not on left, so it looks like not aligned.
check @objc internal func drawDescription(context: CGContext)

        var position = description.position

        // if no position specified, draw on default position
        if position == nil
        {
            let frame = self.bounds
            position = CGPoint(
                x: frame.width - _viewPortHandler.offsetRight - description.xOffset,
                y: frame.height - _viewPortHandler.offsetBottom - description.yOffset - description.font.lineHeight)
        }

you can stroke the rect or draw the position so you know where it starts. I don't think it's a bug.
