adjusting angled x-axis label positions

[fred-spaceape]

I have a column chart (geom_bar) with a discrete x-axis of m/c dates. I've angled the labels by 45 degrees, but now they don't quite line up nicely. Ideally I'd like the month part to be lined up with the tick mark (right now the tick lines up with the middle of the rotated label).
I think in R ggplot you'd use hjust to fix the justification, but it doesn't seem to do anything when I invoke it in lets-plot.

theme(axis_text_x=element_text(angle=45, hjust=0))

Hi, unfortunately there is no good workaround in this situation. I've submitted an issue: #1227

Hi @fred-spaceape !
vjust,hjust are supported in 4.6.0, see demo.

OK I finally tried this, it worked great! Thanks for fixing :)
