Steps To Reproduce

Provide a detailed list of steps that reproduce the issue.

  1. Have your app set up with xaml islands
  2. With the app open, go into the window that's running metro and press "d" to open the developer window
  3. You should see this banner now, "Tap something to inspect it": MicrosoftTeams-image (13)-1
  4. Click around the app to try and inspect an element, and nothing happens

Expected Results

The inspector overlay should show information about the element and what styles are applied to it.

Confirmed this does work on a fresh 0.65 app without islands. So yeah, must be something about the combination of islands and the inspector. Needs investigation.

Just as another data point to help investigation -- I managed to upgrade to react-native-windows v0.64.14 today to make sure that wasn't the issue, and I'm running into the same problem where clicking the UI with the inspector open doesn't do anything (including, doesn't let me click things in the app or navigate around). So it's not just a 0.63 issue.

My guess is it's something about click events vs touch events? Or events not getting propagated correctly, in our setup with xaml islands.

I can confirm that this bug is also still present in 0.66.
