I have made a vertical bar chart in kibana, but I found the text in x-axis label is too long and rotated. I can't find any option to hide it. How to hide it? Thanks!!!

There's an open issue on git regarding all sorts of axis configuration/customization.  
Unfortunately it doesnt look like its coming any time soon... v5.1.0 😧
