TextPattern.UnderlineStyleAttribute Field

Identifies the UnderlineStyle (TextDecorationLineStyle) attribute of a text range.

Namespace: System.Windows.Automation
Assembly: UIAutomationClient (in uiautomationclient.dll)

public static readonly AutomationTextAttribute UnderlineStyleAttribute
public static final AutomationTextAttribute UnderlineStyleAttribute
public static final var UnderlineStyleAttribute : AutomationTextAttribute
Not applicable.

This identifier is used by UI Automation client applications. UI Automation providers should use the equivalent field in TextPatternIdentifiers.

UI Automation clients get the value of the attribute by calling GetAttributeValue.

Values for this attribute are of type TextDecorationLineStyle. The default value is None.

The following example shows how to obtain an attribute value for a range of text in Microsoft Notepad.

NoteNote:

Microsoft Notepad is used as the text provider for example purposes only. Microsoft Notepad is not guaranteed to support the attribute value being requested.

private void GetUnderlineStyleAttribute()
{
    // Start application.
    Process p = Process.Start("Notepad.exe", "text.txt");

    // target --> The root AutomationElement.
    AutomationElement target = AutomationElement.FromHandle(p.MainWindowHandle);

    // Specify the control type we're looking for, in this case 'Document'
    PropertyCondition cond = new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty, ControlType.Document);

    AutomationElement textProvider = target.FindFirst(TreeScope.Descendants, cond);

    TextPattern textpatternPattern = textProvider.GetCurrentPattern(TextPattern.Pattern) as TextPattern;

    if (textpatternPattern == null)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Root element does not contain a descendant that supports TextPattern.");
        return;
    }

    Object oAttribute = textpatternPattern.DocumentRange.GetAttributeValue(TextPattern.UnderlineStyleAttribute);
    if (oAttribute == TextPattern.MixedAttributeValue)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Mixed underline styles.");
    }
    else
    {
        Console.WriteLine(oAttribute.ToString());
    }
}
