Control Class

This class represents windows objects and is returned by calls to FindTopWindow, FindTopWindows, FindControl, FindControls and WindowFromPoint.

Controls can be windows, dialogs, buttons, comboBoxes or any other windows object that can be identified by a unique window handle.

Control objects interact with the windows object using the Microsoft Windows API methods. It has a low overhead and finding Controls using the Find methods is fast.

For an overview of the Microsoft Windows system see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms632595(v=VS.85).aspx.

The WinDriver Control class mainly uses Windows functions and messages described in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff468925(v=VS.85).aspx to operate on widows identified by the window handle. For brave programmers you can use the window handle to call and of the Microsoft windows functions directly within the script.

Some windows UI components such as status bar fields, non-standard or components build from Microsoft WCF or Silverlight are not visible as Control objects. In that case you can try using the AutomationControl Class class

Control Class Properties

Property	Description
string text	The control's text value such as the window caption or label. Note that some controls may not have a label.
System.Drawing.Point Center	The center of the window
bool Enabled	True if the windows control is enabled
bool Visible	True if the windows control is enabled
HandleRef Handle	The windows handle
int Height, Width	The control height and width
Point p	Defined in System.Drawing.Point. A Class to encapsulate the X & Y coordinates.
int X, Y	The control's top left hand X and Y coordinates
int DefaultMaxWait	The default maximum time in milliseconds that time limited methods will wait e.g. FindControl, FindTopWindow and WaitForWindowVisible and other WaitFor... methods.
string class	The windows class name.
Point Centre	The point at the centre of the window
