 virtual bool IsControlElementCore() = IsControlElementCore;
bool IsControlElementCore();
protected virtual bool IsControlElementCore();
function isControlElementCore()
Protected Overridable Function IsControlElementCore () As Boolean

Returns

Boolean

bool

true if the element is a control; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The standard implementation at the AutomationPeer level returns false. However, FrameworkElementAutomationPeer adds behavior that changes the default to true. Other specific peers also may affect this behavior; for example many peers return different values depending on whether the owner is created from a control template. Test the existing return value in the peer that you are using or overriding and then override that behavior if necessary.
