    UI Automation client doesn't see all elements of WPF application


    Hi there. I have a problem while automating a WPF App using Windows UI Automation client API. After joining the app process I can see all visible elements on UI also using Windows UI Automation client, but after re-arranging already existing UI elements i.e. after filtering, new elements including re-arranged UI elements are not visible anymore. Inspect.exe tool also doesn't see those elements. Refresh of the whole element tree or any ancestor which contains new and re-arranged elements inside Inspect.exe tool doesn't help. The same situation is observed while looking for those elements d

    Enable visual styles in WPF application

    EUREKA!

    Steps:
    1) I made a Windows form (HostWPF namespace, Form1 is the form).
    2) I added a reference => System.Windows.Forms.Integration which contains classes that enable interoperation between the Windows Forms and WPF technologies. When you use System.Windows.Forms.Integration classes, you can host Windows Forms controls on WPF pages, and WPF elements in Windows Forms-based applications.
    3) Then added a control (damn Vi$ual $tudio 2010 does not allow to add a WPF window) but after adding I edited the XMAL code in the way I want *Wink UI Automation client doesn't see all elements of WPF application ;)
    4) The next steps are simple. Download the first attachment. But => see the photo.
    It crashes!!!!!
    5) Finally???
    We must use System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit(); command because the WPF window behaves like a classical Windows Form.
    Download the second attachment. Note that the Windows form's name is Initial.
    Enjoy!

    UI Automation client doesn't see all elements of WPF application

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:
