Ability to constrain legend background to the legend text

[chriddyp]

In this example, the legend's background color spans the entire width of the graph. It'd be nice if it only spanned the legend text, so that the lines on the right of the graph aren't beneath the semi-transparent white legend background.

Fixed in https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/compare/drop-firstRender-in-legend-draw

will be part of 1.50.0

Actually, I can't even reproduce this bug on latest, let alone on my dev branch.

Which font are you using?

https://codepen.io/etpinard/pen/OJLXRJa?editors=1010 now has a minimal reproducible example.

The problem happens with horizontal legends when legendgroup is set.
