# Layout Configuration
|
|
|
|
The layout configuration is passed into the `options.layout` namespace. The global options for the chart layout is defined in `Chart.defaults.global.layout`.
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Default | Description

|
|
| `padding` | <code>number|object</code> | `0` | The padding to add inside the chart. [more...](#padding)
|
|
|
|
## Padding
|
|
If this value is a number, it is applied to all sides of the chart (left, top, right, bottom). If this value is an object, the `left` property defines the left padding. Similarly the `right`, `top` and `bottom` properties can also be specified.
|
|
|
|
Lets say you wanted to add 50px of padding to the left side of the chart canvas, you would do:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
let chart = new Chart(ctx, {
|
|
type: 'line',
|
|
data: data,
|
|
options: {
|
|
layout: {
|
|
padding: {
|
|
left: 50,
|
|
right: 0,
|
|
top: 0,
|
|
bottom: 0
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
