Original Pull Request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/14519

State: closed
Merged: Yes


Voice Access allows for functionality like "click <name>" to automatically move the cursor and click on a control. The Search Box had an AutoProp.Name that didn't match the placeholder text, leading to confusion because Voice Access wouldn't be able to find a control named "Find...".

To fix this, we simply aligned the placeholder text and the AutoProp.Name to be "Find". The elipses were removed because no dialog is opened.

This fix was accomplished by modifying the resources file to explicitly match the AutoProp.Name to the placeholder text.

Closes #14398
