4+ It is now possible to attach `wai-aria
5+ <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Roles> `__ role
6+ information to any `~matplotlib.artist.Aritist `. These roles are industry the
7+ industry standard for providing accessibility mark up on the web. This
8+ information can be used by downstream applications for providing accessible
9+ descriptions of visualizations. Best practices in the space are still
10+ developing, but by providing a mechanism to store and access this information
11+ we will enable this development.
12+
13+ There are three methods provided:
14+
15+ - `~matplotlib.artist.Aritist.set_aria ` which will completely replace any existing roles.
16+ - `~matplotlib.artist.Aritist.update_aria ` which will update the current roles in-place.
17+ - `~matplotlib.artist.Aritist.get_aria ` which will return a copy of the current roles.
18+
19+ We currently do no validation on either the keys or the values.
20+
21+
22+ Matplotlib will use the `'aria-label' ` role when saving svg output if it is
23+ provided.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
