I want to put a comment in my plot. How can I format it as a normal paragraph, with each line pressed against the left edge?

```julia
using CairoMakie
using TextWrap
fig = Figure()

fig[1:2, 1:3] = [Axis(fig) for _ in 1:6]

supertitle = Label(fig[0, :], "Six plots", textsize = 30)

sideinfo = Label(fig[2:3, 0], "This text is vertical", rotation = pi/2)
comment = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum."
Label(fig[end+1, :], wrap(comment, width=100), axis=:left, justification=:left)

fig

```

Justification here [https://makie.juliaplots.org/stable/plotting\_functions/text.html](https://makie.juliaplots.org/stable/plotting_functions/text.html)

I think we might have missed to explicitly add that to Label but you can set it on the stored text object

How do you mean?

```julia
lab = Label(fig[end+1, :], wrap(comment, width=100), justification=:left)
lab.text.justification=:left

```

ERROR: LoadError: type Observable has no field justification
