SetText() versus SendKeys()

[DGCBio]

My team currently has a use for both a SendKeys (sending keystrokes) method and a SetText/AppendText method in the WinAppDriver API. Only the former seems to be available currently. Has there been consideration for this? Does something exist that I am missing?

Thanks!

As far as I've seen, WinAppDriver doesn't seem to implement any additional "interaction" logic beyond Selenium and Appium (which SendKeys is a Selenium call). You could create your own method that checks for what's currently in the text box, and then joins that plus your append text, and re-calls SendKeys with the joined text.
