The ITfUIElementMgr interface is implemented by TSF manager and used by an application or a text service. An application and a text service can obtain this interface by ITfThreadMgr::QueryInterface with IID_ITfUIElementMgr.
Methods
The ITfUIElementMgr interface inherits the methods of the IUnknown interface.
In addition, ITfUIElementMgr defines the following methods.
