Hello
I'm working on a new C# UI Automation Library which is based on the native 3.0 library.
While working on that, I found that a WinForm application shows pretty much all controls only as Pane (Bereich in the following screenshot):
If I remove the "Prefer 32-Bit" Flag from the project settings, it looks correct. See this screenshot:
As you can see in those two screenshots, in the first one, the checkbox is only a pane and the combobox is only a pane with a nested pane. Why is this happening? What has the "Prefer 32-Bit" Flag to do with that?
This happens when I run the application on Windows 10, compiled with VS2013 or 2015. It does not happen when I run the application in pre Windows 10.
As a side note: A friend tried to reproduce the issue on his pc. He could not (also Win 10 and VS2015). He has the Win10 SDK installed and I haven't. Were there any changes in UIA which are installed with the Win 10 SKD? Another thesis could be that this only happens on a German system? Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks for your advice!
