|

Remarks

Each supported editor maps to a node in the UI Automation tree. A UIA client application reads properties of the UIA node that corresponds to the focused editor.

Available Options

The editor caption serves as the default name for the corresponding node in the UI Automation tree. You can use the Automation.Name property to specify a different name for the UIA node associated with the editor and retain the current caption in the UI.

In addition, you can use the Automation.Description property to add optional information to clarify the editor purpose for users who rely on third-party assistive tools (such as Microsoft Narrator).

Refer to the TdxAutomationElementSettings class description for detailed information and code examples.
