Hi,

I am using Microsoft UI Automation API.

AT the time of development we have .Net 4.5 Framework installed in our machine and everything was working fine.

Now we are testing the same test method in framework 4.0 but we cannot get the children which are Text type.

Pane [Parent Node]
Image
Text
Text
Button

In 4.5 we are able to traverse every child but in 4.0 only Image and Button is getting traverse.
Any help is appreciated.Thanks!

We are doing automation of WPF component which is hosted as element host in Winform.
When we started our automation we have 4.5 installed in our system and we have successfully automated that control.

After removing 4.5 and we have installed 4.0 the same control is not getting its child.

For example -

There is Pane and inside Pane we have four control - Image, Text, Text, Button
So in 4.5 Framework we are able to locate the Text child of this pane.
But after removing 4.5 only Image and Button are getting traversed.
