I'm using Chart.js (http://www.chartjs.org/) and it's working fine, but I have too big X labels also with 45 degrees orientation (is auto adjusting). I would like to reduce the size of that text, is it possible to do only for X axis? thanks

Yes in the ticks.fontSize configuration you can do it only for the x-axis. For example
var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart"); var myChart = new Chart(ctx, { type: 'bar', data: { labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"], datasets: [{ label: '# of Votes', data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3], backgroundColor: [ 'rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)', 'rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.2)', 'rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.2)', 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)', 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)', 'rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.2)' ], borderColor: [ 'rgba(255,99,132,1)', 'rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)', 'rgba(255, 206, 86, 1)', 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)', 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)', 'rgba(255, 159, 64, 1)' ], borderWidth: 1 }] }, options: { scales: { yAxes: [{ ticks: { beginAtZero: true } }], xAxes: [{ ticks: { fontSize: 8 } }] } } });<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.7.2/Chart.bundle.min.js"></script> <canvas id="myChart" width="400" height="400"></canvas>

thanks, just added this xAxes: [{ ticks: { fontSize: 8 } }] and i resolved.
For version 3.5.1 it's:
options.scales.x.ticks.font.size = $FONT_SIZE
labels: fontSizeproperty chartjs.org/docs/latest/general/fonts.html
