The list below outlines key members of the TcxGridColumnAutomationSettings class. These members allow you to configure column content mapping to a node in a UI Automation tree if the dxUIAutomationEnabled global variable is set to True.
Specify controls used as sources of the current column name and description as a node in a UI Automation tree.
Note
DescribedBy and NamedBy properties are in effect only if corresponding properties (Description and Name) are unspecified.

Third-party UIA clients read these properties when a cell within the column accepts focus.IncludeCellInRowNameSpecifies if the column value is included in UIA information for the focused row. This option can be useful if column values help users to identify the focused row.IsContentElement | IsControlElementSpecify if the column belongs to content and control views (subsets) of the UI Automation tree.
OnCalculatePropertyAllows you to modify calculated UIA node property values for the current column depending on certain conditions.OnInitializePropertiesAllows you to initialize individual UIA node properties for the current column.
