Examples

The following example shows how to obtain an attribute value for a range of text in Microsoft Notepad.

หมายเหตุ

Microsoft Notepad is used as the text provider for example purposes only. Microsoft Notepad is not guaranteed to support the attribute value being requested.

C#

/// -------------------------------------------------------------------
/// <summary>
/// Outputs the FontNameAttribute value for a range of text.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="targetTextElement">
/// The AutomationElment that represents a text control.
/// </param>
/// -------------------------------------------------------------------
private void GetFontNameAttribute(AutomationElement targetTextElement)
{
    TextPattern textPattern = 
        targetTextElement.GetCurrentPattern(TextPattern.Pattern) as TextPattern;

    if (textPattern == null)
    {
        // Target control doesn't support TextPattern.
        return;
    }

    // If the target control doesn't support selection then return.
    // Otherwise, get the text attribute for the selected text.
    // If there are currently no selections then the text attribute 
    // will be obtained from the insertion point.
    TextPatternRange[] textRanges;
    if (textPattern.SupportedTextSelection == SupportedTextSelection.None)
    {
        return;
    }
    else
    {
        textRanges = textPattern.GetSelection();
    }

    foreach (TextPatternRange textRange in textRanges)
    {
        Object textAttribute =
            textRange.GetAttributeValue(
            TextPattern.FontNameAttribute);

        if (textAttribute == TextPattern.MixedAttributeValue)
        {
            // Returns MixedAttributeValue if the value of the 
            // specified attribute varies over the text range. 
            Console.WriteLine("Mixed fonts.");
        }
        else if (textAttribute == AutomationElement.NotSupported)
        {
            // Returns NotSupported if the specified attribute is 
            // not supported by the provider or the control. 
            Console.WriteLine(
                "FontNameAttribute not supported by provider.");
        }
        else
        {
            Console.WriteLine(textAttribute.ToString());
        }
    }
}
