UI Automation did have a problem with IronPython. See http://blogs.msdn.com/shrib/archive/2008/03/24/ironpython-cannot-call-automationelement-fromhandle.aspx. I am not sure if the issue has been fixed yet by the UI Automation team. Or if you are running into that same issue or something else.

Unfortunately, I found that finding elements based on type doesn't work. The example application has 1 button on the form. If I type the following code I get an AutomationElement object: form.FindFirst(TreeScope.Children, PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.NameProperty, "Calculate")) But with the following code, I get None returned: form.FindFirst(TreeScope.Children, PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty, ControlType.Button)) The C# code that accompanies the article successfully uses the FindAll with AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty. Is this a known issue in IronPython? I'm using IronPython 1.1.1. Is this fixed in 2.0?
