IMultipleViewProvider.GetViewName Method
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Retrieves the name of a control-specific view.
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)
Parameters
- viewId
- Type: System.Int32
The view identifier.
View identifiers can be retrieved by using GetSupportedViews.
The collection of view identifiers must be identical across instances.
View names must be suitable for use in text-to-speech, Braille, and other accessible applications.
A typical implementation pattern for the multiple view paradigm is to have some property on the owner control where UI automation is supported that exposes the possible views as a standard enumeration. Then, you map the integer values of that enumeration to the integers you report in the GetSupportedViews collection. GetViewName values would also correspond to the member names of the enumeration member with that value, at least when used with neutral or invariant culture.
