UI Automation Support
With the Q1 2025 version of our controls, RadRadioButton supports UI Automation. The current implementation of UI Automation for RadRadioButton is similar to the MS WinForms RadioButton Control Type implementation with some extended functionality. The main goal of this implementation is to ensure compliance with accessibility standards and to provide a common practice for automated testing.
This functionality is enabled by default. To disable it, you can set the EnableUIAutomation property to false.
