Accessing Foreground property of WPF Textbox : Automation API

by **Rick Rosson** » Mon Feb 01, 2010 9:49 pm

How do you access the foreground property of a textbox in WPF?

Currently we are accessing it using the Ranorex.Text control. I have tried casting it to a Ranorex.Control so that I could call GetProperty but receive a compile error. I have also checked the attributes of the underlying element for the Text control and it was not there either.

Getting and setting properties of WPF controls is currently not supported, we provide that functionality for WinForms controls only. However, this is a wanted feature and is likely to be implemented in one of our next releases.

Please Let me know when this feature is added. We are very interested in your Ranorex Studio. In the meantime we will continue to look at all the other features Ranorex offers until our free trial runs out.

Thanks

Sorry but this feature was postponed, because there were to few requests for this feature. But in a future release of Ranorex we will release a new WPF Plug-In where such features should be available. Currently you have to ask your developers if the write these properties to the helptext. Or they provide you a way to get these properties.

We've moved most of our application development from WinForms to WPF and in a lot the cases we need fucntionalities like this that are available currently only for WinForms. I was just wondering if the new WPF plugin will be available sometime soon. Will it be available sometime in 2012 at all?

Thanks,
Johnson

Currently we are evaluating the various approaches to improve our WPF-Plug-In. I cannot promise you if this year a whole new plug-in for WPF will be released, but for sure we will improve the current one.
