AutomationID not binding to control when set in XAML #3204

Open James-Matthews opened 4 years ago

James-Matthews commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Setting the AutomationProperties.AutomationID in the XAML does not actually set the AutomationID of the control.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a MarkdownTextBlock
  2. Set the AutomationProperties.AutomationID
  3. Observe using any testing framework or inspection tool to see the value is not set

Expected behavior

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

I would expect the AutomationID to properly be set

Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. This image shows the use of MarkdownTextBlock with the AutomationID set, but the inspection tool shows the property is not present image

This images shows that the inspection tool does properly work, as the AutomationID for the overview TextBlock is set, and you can see it present in the inspection tool window image
