Link to issue number:
Fixes #10491
Fixes #10422
Summary of the issue:
UIA TextInfo code in particular logs many entries at the debug level. This can be very noisy if you want to debug an issue in an UIA text control that is unrelated to the UIA text field fetching itself.
Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:
Add a new UIA debug logging category to the advanced settings, which is off by default. If on, not only TextInfo field fetching is logged, but also several things within the handler, such as ignored win events, events that are unknown to NVDA, etc.
While working on this, I added proper debug logging on the UIAHandler event handler methods, thereby avoiding errors logged by comtypes.
Testing performed:
Tested that several new log entries appear in the log and that getTextWithFields logs UIA specific details when the UIA debug logging is enabled.
Known issues with pull request:
