Let us look at a simple C# Windows Forms ListView example.
Example 1: ListView
This example will comprise the following files:
ListView.csResources.Designer.cs
Step 1: Create Project
- The first step is to create a C# Project.
- Go to
FILE-->New-->Projectto create a new project.
Step 2: Write Code
Write Code as follows:
*(a). ListView.cs
Create a file named ListView.cs
Here is the full code
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace Examples {
class MainForm : Form {
public static void Main() {
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new MainForm());
}
public MainForm() {
Text = "ListView example";
ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(350, 260);
listView1.Parent = this;
listView1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(10, 10);
listView1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(330, 200);
listView1.View = View.Details;
listView1.LargeImageList = new ImageList();
listView1.LargeImageList.ImageSize = new System.Drawing.Size(48, 48);
listView1.LargeImageList.Images.AddRange(new System.Drawing.Image[] {Properties.Resources.Ai, Properties.Resources.Avi, Properties.Resources.Bmp});
listView1.SmallImageList = new ImageList();
listView1.SmallImageList.ImageSize = new System.Drawing.Size(16, 16);
listView1.SmallImageList.Images.AddRange(new System.Drawing.Image[] {Properties.Resources.Ai, Properties.Resources.Avi, Properties.Resources.Bmp});
listView1.Columns.Add("Name", 80);
listView1.Columns.Add("Type", 50);
listView1.Columns.Add("Size", 50);
listView1.Columns.Add("Comment", 140);
listView1.Items.Add("First", 1).SubItems.AddRange(new string[] {"Movie", "5389", "This is the first item"});
listView1.Items.Add("Second", 0).SubItems.AddRange(new string[] {"Picture", "1256", "This is the second item"});
listView1.Items.Add("Third", 2).SubItems.AddRange(new string[] {"Picture", "4284", "This is the third item"});
comboBox1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(10, 220);
comboBox1.Parent = this;
comboBox1.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;
comboBox1.Items.AddRange(Enum.GetNames(typeof(View)));
comboBox1.SelectedIndex = (int)listView1.View;
comboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e) {
listView1.View = (View)comboBox1.SelectedIndex;
};
}
private ListView listView1 = new ListView();
private ComboBox comboBox1 = new ComboBox();
}
