Gets a capability providing dynamic attributes and actions that the element supports.
|
| Enabled |
True if the element is enabled.
|
| EnsureVisible()()() |
Tries to make the element visible to the user.
This is usually accomplished by bringing the element or one of its ancestors to foreground.
|
 | Equals(Element, Element) |
Returns true if the two instances are considered equal.
|
| Equals(Object) |

| FindFromPoint(Point) |
Find an element by screen location. The found element is a descendant of this
instance or this instance itself.
|
| FindFromUid(String, Element%) |

Returns the value of an attribute.
|
| GetAttributeValueText(String) |
Returns the value of an attribute converted to its string representation.
|
| GetAttributeValueText(String, Regex) |
Returns the value of an attribute converted to its string representation. If a regex
is provided, only the part of the string representation matching the regular
expression is returned.
|
| GetHashCode()()() |
Default implementation override.
(Overrides Object.GetHashCode()()().) |
| GetLifetimeService()()() | Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |

|
| InvokeActionWithText(String, array<String>[]()[]) |
Invokes an action on the element.
|
| IsAncestor(Element) |
Determines whether the current element is an ancestor of the specified child element.
|
| IsEqual(Element) |
