Hide label on xAxis in Line-Chart in canvas Html5

Question

I am implementing line chart and I want to hide x'Axis label from line chart. I putted scaleFontSize: 0, , Than x'Axis and Y'axis labels are hide. But I want to hide only x'Axis label.

var lineOptions = {
                ///Boolean - Whether grid lines are shown across the chart
                scaleShowGridLines : true,
                //String - Colour of the grid lines
                scaleGridLineColor : "rgba(0,0,0,.05)",
                //Number - Width of the grid lines
                scaleGridLineWidth : 1,
                //Boolean - Whether the line is curved between points
                bezierCurve : true,
                //Number - Tension of the bezier curve between points
                bezierCurveTension : 0.4,
                //Boolean - Whether to show a dot for each point
                pointDot : true,
                //Number - Radius of each point dot in pixels
                pointDotRadius : 4,
                //Number - Pixel width of point dot stroke
                pointDotStrokeWidth : 1,
                //Number - amount extra to add to the radius to cater for hit detection outside the drawn point
                pointHitDetectionRadius : 20,
                //Boolean - Whether to show a stroke for datasets
                datasetStroke : true,
                //Number - Pixel width of dataset stroke
                datasetStrokeWidth : 2,
                //Boolean - Whether to fill the dataset with a colour
                datasetFill : true,
                //Boolean - Re-draw chart on page resize
                responsive: true,
                //String - A legend template
                legendTemplate : "<ul class=\"<%=name.toLowerCase()%>-legend\"><% for (var i=0; i<datasets.length; i++){%><li><span style=\"background-color:<%=datasets[i].lineColor%>\"></span><%if(datasets[i].label){%><%=datasets[i].label%><%}%></li><%}%></ul>"
            };
       var lineData = {
        labels: data,
        datasets: [
            {               
            pointHighlightStroke: "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
            data: []
        }

    ]
};

         var getElement = document.getElementById("departuresChart2");
                var ctx = getElement.getContext("2d");
                $scope.myNewChart = new Chart(ctx).Line(lineData, lineOptions);

I am taking reference from http://www.chartjs.org/docs/#line-chart-introduction . I want to hide only A'axis label.I have seen one link in stackoverflow Remove x-axis label/text in chart.js . But still I am not able to fixed. Thanks

You have to set scale.xLabels property of your chart (instance), to an empty array - [] (hides x-axis gridlines) , or $scope.myNewChart.scale.xLabels.map(e => '') (shows x-axis gridlines) , to hide x-axis labels.

Example

 var lineOptions = { //Boolean - Whether grid lines are shown across the chart scaleShowGridLines: true, //String - Colour of the grid lines scaleGridLineColor: "rgba(0,0,0,.05)", //Number - Width of the grid lines scaleGridLineWidth: 1, //Boolean - Whether the line is curved between points bezierCurve: true, //Number - Tension of the bezier curve between points bezierCurveTension: 0.4, //Boolean - Whether to show a dot for each point pointDot: true, //Number - Radius of each point dot in pixels pointDotRadius: 4, //Number - Pixel width of point dot stroke pointDotStrokeWidth: 1, //Number - amount extra to add to the radius to cater for hit detection outside the drawn point pointHitDetectionRadius: 20, //Boolean - Whether to show a stroke for datasets datasetStroke: true, //Number - Pixel width of dataset stroke datasetStrokeWidth: 2, //Boolean - Whether to fill the dataset with a colour datasetFill: true, //Boolean - Re-draw chart on page resize responsive: true, //String - A legend template legendTemplate: "<ul class=\\"<%=name.toLowerCase()%>-legend\\"><% for (var i=0; i<datasets.length; i++){%><li><span style=\\"background-color:<%=datasets[i].lineColor%>\\"></span><%if(datasets[i].label){%><%=datasets[i].label%><%}%></li><%}%></ul>" }; var lineData = { labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July"], datasets: [{ label: "My Second dataset", fillColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.2)", strokeColor: "rgba(151,187,205,1)", pointColor: "rgba(151,187,205,1)", data: [28, 48, 40, 19, 86, 27, 90] }] }; var getElement = document.getElementById("departuresChart2"); var ctx = getElement.getContext("2d"); myNewChart = new Chart(ctx).Line(lineData, lineOptions); myNewChart.scale.xLabels = []; //or set -> myNewChart.scale.xLabels.map(e => '');
