title: Chart.js 2.2.x - How to access the pixel coordinate of a point in my dataset
body: <p>I'm creating a plugin for my chart (in ChartJS 2.2.2), and for that I need the pixel position of each point of my dataset.</p>
  
  <p>When inspecting the <code>chart.config.data.datasets[0]._meta[0]</code>, I get back the following object:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/7UU84.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/7UU84.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>But when I access the x field directly in my plugin code, the values returned are different. The commands:</p>
  
  <p><code>chart.config.data.datasets[0]._meta[0].dataset._children[0]._model.x</code> and
  <code>chart.config.data.datasets[0]._meta[0].data[0]._model.x</code> (which yields the same value when looking it up in the chrome debugger) both return <strong>x = 3</strong> instead of 44.67.</p>
  
  <p>Why is this happening? What is the proper way to access the pixel coordinate of a point in my dataset? </p>
