Remarks
In many cases, assistive technology (AT) treats a dialog window differently than other types of windows. A screen reader, for example, typically speaks the title of the dialog, the focused control in the dialog, and then the content of the dialog up to the focused control (for example, "Do you want to save your changes before closing"). For standard windows, a screen reader typically speaks the window title followed by the focused control.
When AutomationProperties.IsDialog is true, a client application should treat the element as a dialog window.
Flyout and ContentDialog elements default to true for AutomationProperties.IsDialog.
