ItemAutomationPeer.IsContentElementCore Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a value that indicates whether the item element that is associated with this ItemAutomationPeer is an element that contains data that is presented to the user. This method is called by IsContentElement.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Automation.Peers
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Protected Overrides Function IsContentElementCore As Boolean
protected override bool IsContentElementCore()

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the element contains data for the user to read; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the item is a UIElement with its own peer as reported by Owner, then information from that peer is forwarded. Next, the container peer (which could be ItemsControlAutomationPeer, ListBoxAutomationPeer, or another class) is used as a possible source. Finally, if there is no container peer, then this method returns true (the assumption here is that the item is a string that is intended to be presented to the user).
