Is there a way for me to use pywinauto to select the UIA property ItemStatus.
I can see the property with the inspect.exe tool, but pywinauto elements don't have it exposed.
I'm not sure if this is the right way, but I used underlying element object to do this.
.element_info._element.CurrentItemStatus
This return the property value I needed.
Thanks for the element_info suggestion @vasily, that gave me the pointer where to look in the src code.
