Hi, thanks for your suggestion. However, I'm not too familiar with UIAutomation. Could you please explain what you imagine the end result to look like? Specifically, what would be the purpose of adding this to Robot, where does it fit into the project, what are some use cases and how could similar functionality be implemented on other supported operating systems.

UIAutomation is only for Windows systems but you can automate everything related to GUI with it.
