Returns the descent of the text.
The textDescent() function calculates the distance from the baseline to the lowest point of the current font. This value represents the descent, which, when combined with the ascent (from textAscent()), determines the overall vertical span of the text. If a text string is provided as an argument, the descent is calculated based on that specific string; otherwise, the descent of the current font is returned.
Examples
Syntax
textDescent([txt])
Parameters
txt
String: (Optional) The text string for which to calculate the descent. If omitted, the function returns the descent for the current font.
Returns
Number: The descent value in pixels.
