Remarks
After finding a top-level window control, you would use this method to find a child control within the window control. The control can be matched on a text value, and/or a class name or a custom selection function.
If a matching control is not found a TimeoutException is thrown. You can catch this exception as shown below.
Example
Control notepadWindow = FindTopWindow("Untitled - Notepad");
Control editArea = notepadWindow.FindControl(null, "Edit");
// find the Edit class control in the notepad window
Control okButton = window.FindControl("OK");
Control orientButton = setupDialog.FindControl("Landscape", "Button");
// class "Button" with text "Landscape"
orientButton.ClickButton();
Control explorer_w = FindTopWindow(none, "ExploreWClass", 10000);
// explorer window, wait for 10 seconds
Control explorer_w = FindTopWindow(myFunction, 10000); // call a user supplied method bool myFunction
Control window;
try
{
listBox = window.FindControl("", "ListBox", 5000); // wait for 5 seconds
}
