setting automationid for RadRibbon

[David]

Hi,

I'm trying to set the AutomationId in the xmal so I can view it using UISpy.  I can't seem to get a hold of the controls in the Ribbon.

<

 

 

telerik:RadRibbonBar x:Name="ribbonBar" TitleBarVisibility="Collapsed" ApplicationButtonVisibility="Collapsed">

 

 

 

 

<telerik:RadRibbonTab HeaderVisibility="Collapsed">

 

 

 

 

<telerik:RadRibbonGroup Header="Home" AutomationProperties.AutomationId="Home3" DialogLauncherVisibility="Collapsed" Icon="/rect_select.png">

 

 

 

 

<telerik:RadRibbonButton AutomationProperties.AutomationId="Home2" Name="Home2" Text="Home2" Size="Large" telerik:ScreenTip.Title="Home Page" telerik:ScreenTip.Description="Click to go to the home."

Hi David,

 RibbonBar automation realization is not using the AutomationProperties, instead it uses the properties of the controls itself, for example the RibbonGroup automation peer will the Header as name of the Automation handle. 
We consider this as a problem, that should be fixed, so we added it to our Backlog items.
Thank you for your cooperation.
