How to prevent Tooltip content reading in JAWS reader

Open keerthanaRajendran opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Summary

I am using Tooltip for multiple input elements and showing the Tooltip on input elements both hovering and clicking. I need to prevent the JAWS reader from reading the Tooltip content while hovering. I have tried to remove the "role" attribute and set the "aria-hidden" attribute as true.

But none of these ways works and the Tooltip is still readable. Any assistance would be appreciable. We are using JAWS 2020.2008.24 ILM

Expected result

Tooltip content should not be read.

Actual result

Tooltip content is read. But the narrator doesn't read this.

Additional Information
