Summary

Updates the Input component documentation to address issue #2330 by adding the missing trailingIconAriaLabel property and clarifying that autoCapitalize only works on mobile devices.

Changes Made

1. Added trailingIconAriaLabel Property Documentation

  • Sandbox Controls: Added interactive "Trailing icon ARIA label" input field to the playground for testing
  • Properties Table: Added trailingIconAriaLabel property to both current and legacy component properties with proper descriptions
  • Framework Support: Documented the property for both React (trailingIconAriaLabel) and Angular (trailingiconarialabel) implementations

2. Updated autoCapitalize Property Description

  • Enhanced the description for both React and Angular versions to clarify: "This only works on mobile devices"
  • Applied the update consistently across both current and legacy property documentation

Context

This documentation update reflects the functionality added in PR #2376, which implemented the trailingIconAriaLabel property for improved accessibility when using trailing icons in Input components. The autoCapitalize clarification helps developers understand the platform limitations of this HTML feature.

Testing

  • ✅ Build passes without errors
  • ✅ Interactive playground correctly shows and handles the new "Trailing icon ARIA label" field
  • ✅ Properties table displays the new trailingIconAriaLabel property with correct description
  • ✅ autoCapitalize property shows updated mobile-only description
  • ✅ All existing functionality remains intact

Screenshots

The screenshot shows:

  • New "Trailing icon ARIA label" field in the playground controls
  • Updated autoCapitalize description mentioning mobile-only behavior
  • trailingIconAriaLabel property listed in the Properties table

Related

  • Fixes #2330
  • Follows up on PR #2376 (implementation of trailingIconAriaLabel)

@copilot The previous versions of our components, Angular v3 and React v5, does not have the trailingIconAriaLabel property We use the following logic for showing properties for the old versions:

{version === "old" && (

And we use the following logic for showing properties for the new versions (Angular 4v and React v6):

{version === "new" && (

Can you make the trailingIconAriaLabel property only visible on the new versions?

I've updated the code to make the trailingIconAriaLabel property only visible for new versions (Angular v4+ and React v6+). The property has been removed from the old component properties array and the playground control is now conditional, only showing for new versions. (7a911b1)

@copilot I noticed the screenshot in your PR description doesn't show the changes. Could you replace it with a screenshot that shows the "Trailing Icon ARIA Label" input?

Looks good to me in terms of the sandbox and properties. I am not sure how what the expected screen reader experience would be for this aria label, but I'm assuming that was tested when the property was added to the component.

@twjeffery @bdfranck One thing that could be added. The intended experience for this was for the aria-label only to be added when the trailing icon is a clickable element, to give the screen reader an idea of what they were clicking. It might be a good idea to update the documentation in the properties window to say when this should be used, ie. "Should only be using when making the trailing icon interactive"?

@copilot Add this to the end of the trailingIconAriaLabel description: "Use only when the trailing icon is interactive."
