Accessibility in Xamarin Scheduler (SfSchedule)
21 May 20212 minutes to read
The SfSchedule control has built-in AutomationId for inner elements. Please find the following table of Automation IDs for inner elements. To keep unique AutomationId, these inner elements’ AutomationIds are updated based on the control’s AutomationId. For example, if you set SfSchedule AutomationId as SfSchedule.AutomationId = EventScheduler, then the Automation framework will interact with the month header as EventSchedulerAugust 2019. The following screenshots denote the AutomationIds for inner elements.
