How to remove left and right margins from bar chart or else modify the x-axis label location

New To Observable

Hey folks :wave: happy holidays!

I’m trying to figure out how to get this horizontal bar chart displaying correctly. My goal is to get the x-axis label centered with no arrow and I’d like to have minimal margin on both the right and left, however, I keep playing whack-a-mole deciding if I should modify the type to band and then modify the margins, or if I should keep the default type and instead look at modifying the location of the x-axis label. Any help would be much appreciated!

Here is a notebook with both examples, I hope this helps explain it: Bar Chart Margin Modification / Mike Talley | Observable

try the labelAnchor: "center" option

Thanks @Fil, I’m not sure how I missed that, I feel like I looked through all of the docs. I was able to use labelAnchor: "center" and labelArrow: "none" to achieve the result I was looking for!
