hintOverrides property

SemanticsHintOverrides? hintOverrides
final

Overrides the default accessibility hints provided by the platform.

This hintOverrides property does not affect how the platform processes hints; it only sets the custom text that will be read by assistive technology.

On Android, these overrides replace the default hints for semantics nodes with tap or long-press actions. For example, if SemanticsHintOverrides.onTapHint is provided, instead of saying Double tap to activate, the screen reader will say Double tap to <onTapHint>.

On iOS, this property is ignored, and default platform behavior applies.

Example usage:

const Semantics.fromProperties(
 properties: SemanticsProperties(
   hintOverrides: SemanticsHintOverrides(
     onTapHint: 'open settings',
   ),
 ),
 child: Text('button'),
)

Implementation

final SemanticsHintOverrides? hintOverrides;
