Textify support most, but not all apps. It relies on UI Automation, and if your program doesn't implement it, e.g. if the interface is custom made and the author didn't bother implementing it, then it won't work. Just like Textify doesn't work with images since there's nowhere to grab text from, and Textify doesn't do OCR.

There’s a tool from Microsoft called Inspect which shows automation-related information. It can be downloaded here. You can try it with your programs to make sure it's not just an issue with Textify. Let me know if you think it is.
