desc
The desc element provides an accessible, long-text description of any SVG container element or graphics element. Text in a desc element is not rendered as part of the graphic. If the element can be described by visible text, it is possible to reference that text with the aria-describedby attribute.
Usually, this element is created with:
js
const desc = parentElement.add('desc')It's possible to create it as a disconnected element with gSVG('desc') and attach it to the SVG document with .attachTo().
