Doug,
I think you mean to do the following:
Let MyTreeWalker =
MyTreeWalker.GoToFirstChild().GoToNextSibling().GoToNextSibling().
GoToNextSibling().GoToFirstChild().GoToFirstChild()
SayString(MyTreeWalker.CurrentElement.Name)
But this doesn't work either. I have found that using any of the GoTo
methods on MyTreeWalker returns false. I have confirmed that the statement:
Let MyTreeWalker = MyObject.ControlViewWalker does result in an object.

The goTo* methods change object state and return boolean, rather than
returning a new object. You'll have to make your goto* calls separately,
then use MyTreeWalker.currentElement to get at where you landed.

I've used MicroSoft's Inspect tool to reveal the object hierarchy. My code
follows:
Var object MyObject, object MyTreeWalker
Let MyObject = CreateObjectEx("FreedomSci.UIA", false,
"UIAScriptAPI.x.manifest")
Let MyTreeWalker = MyObject.ControlViewWalker
SayString(MyTreeWalker.GoToFirstChild().GoToNextSibling().GoToNextSibling().
GoToNextSibling().GoToFirstChild().GoToFirstChild().Name)
I know the name that should be spoken for this element but I get nothing. I
suspect that I'm not using the Tree Walker piece correctly. Can anyone help
with this?
