I have a page with an image set as a background. On this page I have images with tap gesture recognizers resting on top of the background image.
On Android in accessibility mode when ever I try to select these images instead of the images gaining talk back focus the background image gains focus.
I've tried having the talk back service ignore the background image by writing a custom renderer for the background image an setting
Control.ImportantForAccessibility = ImportantForAccessibility.No;
but that doesn't seem to change the behavior of talk back at all. Is there a way to access the talk back service directly from a custom renderer so that I can either manually turn it off for the UI element or at least capture the event where talk back gives the background image focus?
