I found that the line, VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(depObj);, used in several examples above does not return a non-zero count for GroupBoxes, in particular, where the GroupBox contains a Grid, and the Grid contains children elements. I believe this may be because the GroupBox is not allowed to contain more than one child, and this is stored in its Content property. There is no GroupBox.Children type of property. I am sure I did not do this very efficiently, but I modified the first "FindVisualChildren" example in this chain as follows:

public IEnumerable<T> FindVisualChildren<T>(DependencyObject depObj) where T : DependencyObject 
{ 
    if (depObj != null) 
    {
        int depObjCount = VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(depObj); 
        for (int i = 0; i <depObjCount; i++) 
        { 
            DependencyObject child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(depObj, i); 
            if (child != null && child is T) 
            { 
                yield return (T)child; 
            }

            if (child is GroupBox)
            {
                GroupBox gb = child as GroupBox;
                Object gpchild = gb.Content;
                if (gpchild is T)
                {
                    yield return (T)child; 
                    child = gpchild as T;
                }
            }

            foreach (T childOfChild in FindVisualChildren<T>(child)) 
            { 
                yield return childOfChild; 
            } 
        }
    }
} 

这就是它向上的工作原理

    private T FindParent<T>(DependencyObject item, Type StopAt) where T : class
    {
        if (item is T)
        {
            return item as T;
        }
        else
        {
            DependencyObject _parent = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(item);
            if (_parent == null)
            {
                return default(T);
            }
            else
            {
                Type _type = _parent.GetType();
                if (StopAt != null)
                {
                    if ((_type.IsSubclassOf(StopAt) == true) || (_type == StopAt))
                    {
                        return null;
                    }
                }

                if ((_type.IsSubclassOf(typeof(T)) == true) || (_type == typeof(T)))
                {
                    return _parent as T;
                }
                else
                {
                    return FindParent<T>(_parent, StopAt);
                }
            }
        }
    }

出于某种原因，这里发布的答案都没有帮助我在主窗口中获得给定控件中包含的给定类型的所有控件。 我需要在一个菜单中找到所有的菜单项来迭代它们。它们并不都是菜单的直接后代，所以我使用上面的任何代码只收集了它们的第一行。 这个扩展方法是我对这个问题的解决方案，任何人都将继续读到这里。

public static void FindVisualChildren<T>(this ICollection<T> children, DependencyObject depObj) where T : DependencyObject
    {
        if (depObj != null)
        {
            var brethren = LogicalTreeHelper.GetChildren(depObj);
            var brethrenOfType = LogicalTreeHelper.GetChildren(depObj).OfType<T>();
            foreach (var childOfType in brethrenOfType)
            {
                children.Add(childOfType);
            }

            foreach (var rawChild in brethren)
            {
                if (rawChild is DependencyObject)
                {
                    var child = rawChild as DependencyObject;
                    FindVisualChildren<T>(children, child);
                }
            }
        }
    }

希望能有所帮助。

我发现没有Visual Tree Helpers更容易:

foreach (UIElement element in MainWindow.Children) {
    if (element is TextBox) { 
        if ((element as TextBox).Text != "")
        {
            //Do something
        }
    }
};

要获得特定类型的所有子元素的列表，您可以使用:

private static IEnumerable<DependencyObject> FindInVisualTreeDown(DependencyObject obj, Type type)
{
    if (obj != null)
    {
        if (obj.GetType() == type)
        {
            yield return obj;
        }

        for (var i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(obj); i++)
        {
            foreach (var child in FindInVisualTreeDown(VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(obj, i), type))
            {
                if (child != null)
                {
                    yield return child;
                }
            }
        }
    }

    yield break;
}

对于这个和更多的用例，你可以添加流动扩展方法到你的库:

 public static List<DependencyObject> FindAllChildren(this DependencyObject dpo, Predicate<DependencyObject> predicate)
    {
        var results = new List<DependencyObject>();
        if (predicate == null)
            return results;


        for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(dpo); i++)
        {
            var child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(dpo, i);
            if (predicate(child))
                results.Add(child);

            var subChildren = child.FindAllChildren(predicate);
            results.AddRange(subChildren);
        }
        return results;
    }

举个例子:

 var children = dpObject.FindAllChildren(child => child is TextBox);
