Remarks

This class identifies automation properties, it does not provide the values of such properties. Static values of the AutomationProperty type are found as fields of the AutomationElementIdentifiers class and as fields of similar classes that identify the automation properties of specific automation provider patterns.

You also use AutomationElementIdentifiers values(or specific provider automation property identifiers) in order to identify the specific automation property that changed when you call RaisePropertyChangedEvent.
