{
    if (targetApp == null)
    {
        throw new ArgumentException("Root element cannot be null.");
    }

    PropertyCondition conditionSupportsMultipleView =
        new PropertyCondition(

    return targetApp.FindAll(
        TreeScope.Descendants, conditionSupportsMultipleView);
}

private int[] GetSupportedViewsFromPattern(
    AutomationElement multipleViewControl)
{
    if (multipleViewControl == null)
    {
        throw new ArgumentNullException(
            "AutomationElement parameter must not be null.");
    }

    return multipleViewControl.GetCurrentPropertyValue(
        MultipleViewPattern.SupportedViewsProperty) as int[];
}
