The preview button is a native button element with an aria-label that refers to the aria.zoomImage property of the locale API by default, with previewButtonProps you may use your own aria roles and attributes as any valid attribute is passed to the button element implicitly.

When preview is active, dialog role with aria-modal is applied to the overlay image container.

Button controls use aria.rotateRight, aria.rotateLeft, aria.zoomIn, aria.zoomOut and aria.close from the locale API as aria-label.
