How can we check if a AutomationElement is selected c#

Question

Is there any way to get if an AutomationElement is selected or not. I have used following code to get an AutomationElement object.

System.Windows.Point point = new System.Windows.Point(Cursor.Position.X, Cursor.Position.Y);
AutomationElement  element = AutomationElement.FromPoint(point);
//how to know element is selected or not

Do you mean 'selected' or 'focused'? – Eric Brown Aug 02 '13 at 15:45 — Eric Brown, Aug 02 '13 at 15:45

Use the SelectionItem pattern to determine if an element is selected or not (obviously, not all AutomationElements implement this pattern -- only those that can actually be selected. In case they don't, you may use the IsFocused property).
