    Interface ChartGuide

    A plain-language introduction to a kind of chart, shown in the description dialog's collapsible "About this chart type" section.

    The rest of the dialog assumes the reader already knows what the chart type is. A reader who has never seen one -- which, for someone blind from birth, may be most of them -- is told a name like "Violin Plot" and nothing else, so each type also says what it is, what it is for, and what it looks like.
