React-select: Screen reader still reads tabbing instructions when `tabSelectsValue` prop is false

Created on 18 Jan 2019  路  6Comments  路  Source: JedWatson/react-select

React-select still reads the tabbing instruction ("press Tab to select the option and exit the menu") when tabSelectsValue is set to false.

Example with tabSelectsValue={false}

Solution:
Only include that part of the screen reader instructions if tabSelectsValue is true (default).

We're hoping to merge and release the attached PR that fixes this issue as part of 3.2. We don't have an ETA at the moment, but my guess is that it will happen sometime in the next month.

@JedWatson : Any updates on this? It is difficult to use this prop as the narrator then misguides the users.

@jayaranigarg I made an attempt at fixing this issue in the above PR, hope it helps!
