Remarks

The following example code shows a property-changed event handler being added and removed.


AutomationPropertyChangedEventHandler propChangeHandler;
/// <summary>
/// Adds a handler for property-changed event; in particular, a change in the enabled state.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="element">The UI Automation element whose state is being monitored.</param>
public void SubscribePropertyChange(AutomationElement element)
{
    Automation.AddAutomationPropertyChangedEventHandler(element, 
        TreeScope.Element, 
        propChangeHandler = new AutomationPropertyChangedEventHandler(OnPropertyChange),
        AutomationElement.IsEnabledProperty);
}

/// <summary>
/// Handler for property changes.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="src">The source whose properties changed.</param>
/// <param name="e">Event arguments.</param>
private void OnPropertyChange(object src, AutomationPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
    AutomationElement sourceElement = src as AutomationElement;
    if (e.Property == AutomationElement.IsEnabledProperty)
    {
        bool enabled = (bool)e.NewValue;
        // TODO: Do something with the new value. 
        // The element that raised the event can be identified by its runtime ID property.
    }
    else
    { 
        // TODO: Handle other property-changed events.
    }
}
