Remarks

An Orientation automation property can be set by the peer for a control (such as ScrollBarAutomationPeer) by overriding GetOrientationCore. Generally such an implementation would report the value of a dedicated property of the peer's owner control (for instance ScrollBar.Orientation). An Orientation automation property cannot be set as an instance-level automation property.

Generally if an Orientation automation property is reported, it is tied to a dedicated Orientation property of the owner control class.
