Show Deprecated not respected for inherited fields

[sleitnick]

The “Show Deprecated” button toggles the visibility of deprecated APIs on the page. However, it does not seem to affect the display of inherited fields/methods/events that are deprecated within the main page content. It does work properly within the “On this page” sidebar menu.

The below image shows an example of this. The “OnUpdate” method is deprecated for the inherited GlobalDataStore under the OrderedDataStore page. In this example, I have “Show Deprecated” unchecked, so this should be hidden. You can see that the sidebar does correctly hide this properly (it would’ve shown up where the green “X” is).

Note: This issue also exists for the “Summary” portion of the page.

This is not limited to the OderedDataStore article, but all reference pages.

I am using the latest release version of Microsoft Edge.

Expected behavior

All deprecated APIs, including inherited ones, should be hidden if “Show Deprecated” is not toggled.
