How to stop screen reader(Narrator) from reading password field in QML

Ajay Krishna

Hi I have developed a QML app for windows 10 where windows narrator can reads contents of my app (Screen). Now i want narrator not to read text i am entering in password field . can someone help in managing this ?

I have tried same with QLinedit where if i set lineedit to password mode and start typing narrators says hidden and whereas in case of TextInput it reads the keys i type even i set it to echoMode: TextInput.Password .

I have attached the sample code .

TextInput{
width: 240
text: ""
font.family: "Helvetica"
font.pointSize: 20
color: "blue"
focus: true
Accessible.name: ""
Accessible.description: ""
Accessible.passwordEdit: true
Accessible.ignored: true

echoMode: TextInput.Password
}
