Curious about the before/after rendering of legend label, can you post screenshots?

Sure.

Before:

After:

Much better "after" :)

Hi,

Much, much better indeed. In your example it seems perfect. When I try it, it still seems to be slightly off, especially with strike-through it's noticeable. Seems the text should be 1 or 2px higher in order to be perfectly aligned with colored box and for the strike to go through the middle.

See here:

These are my settings:

                        responsive: true,
                        maintainAspectRatio: false,
                        legend: {
                            labels: {
                                fontFamily: 'Open Sans',
                                fontSize: 15,
                                padding: 25
                            }
