Legend Label Options missing type def for pointStyleWidth - Typescript

[MasterCash]

Expected behavior

property pointStyleWidth exists on options.plugin.legend.labels object and doesn't cause compiler error

Current behavior

compiler complains that pointStyleWidth doesn't exist but it should be according to documentation: https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/configuration/legend.html#legend-label-configuration

Hey any updates on solving this? I am having the same problem with 3.9.1. I wonder if there is an alternative to changing the pointStyle?

@xxgunnery:

you can get around the TS compile errors by casting to any but you lose intellisense and type checking:

new Chart(ctx, {
  ...,
  options: {
    plugins: {
      legend: {
        labels: {
          pointStyleWidth: 10,
        } as any
      }
    }
  }
});

you could also go to your node_modules folder (or where ever your package lives) and manually update the package to have the type def, you could add it to the chart.js/dist/types/index.d.ts file with the interface LegendOptions there is the labels property where I believe it should be added to allow it to work without the any. This also causes it to be overwritten if you ever update 🤷‍♂️ but that would be a workaround. (I also haven't tested the implications of the second workaround and have only done a little bit of digging into the source code)
