Remarks

The FlowsFrom property specifies the reading order when automation elements are not exposed or structured in the same reading order as perceived by the user. While the FlowsFrom property can specify multiple preceding elements, it typically contains only the prior element in the reading order.

Note

AutomationProperties.FlowsFrom is an atypical attached property because it does not have a Set accessor, and thus is not really a XAML attached property with a markup usage. It uses the attached property model as a property store, but does not support an Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) usage. To get the array of elements, call GetFlowsFrom, passing the item as the input parameter.
