This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I would like to show the custom field "description" information next to the custom field in a CRED form.
Solution: The "description" is meant to be displayed in the post editor screen of wp-admin. If you'd like to include this text in the CRED form, you must insert it manually. There is no shortcode available for this information.

I have set up some custom fields and some of them have a description.
The description doe snot show in the cred form when I insert the according shortcode.
The tooltip in the cusstom fields setup page states that the description will show up NEXT to the field and "helps users to understand". It does not.
Have tried these but best I got was just the title, NOT the description:
[cred_field field='disclaimer' value='' urlparam='' output='bootstrap'] --> The field itself with the title [types field="disclaimer" show_name="true"][/types] --> the title only [types field="disclaimer" format="FIELD_NAME"][/types] --> nothing [types field="disclaimer" format="FIELD_DESCRIPTION"][/types] --> nothing
