Description

Note: this is the same change that was made in #12036, which was reverted here: #12057

Type of Change

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)

Why

Add accessibilityHint support and information to UIA Tree HelpText property for improved accessibility information.

What

Added code to update HelpText UIA field with property value passed in to the accessibilityHint prop. Previously, when the accessibilityHint prop was populated, the HelpText field in the UIA tree would remain empty.

Screenshots

After:

As can be seen the HelpText property is updated within the UIA tree when setting the accessibilityHint prop

Testing

Tested that HelpText UIA field is not populated when accessibilityHint is set before code change, and that HelpText UIA field is populated after code change. Used accessible.tsx sample page in playground for testing
