RE: enable/disable buttons based on ListView selection



Hi Brandon,

When a ListView's View property is set to List, LargeIcon, or SmallIcon,
the bound of an item in it limited to the item text. When you click on one
item in a ListView, you should see a dotted line around the item text, and
this is the bound of the item.

Only when you click inside the bound of an item, this item can be selected
and the corresponding events, such as SelectedIndexChanged,
ItemSelectionChanged events can be raised.

This behavior of ListView is by design. If you don't like this limited item
bound, you may use ListBox instead. You can handle the SelectedIndexChanged
event of the ListBox to get notified when different item is selected in the
ListBox.

Hope this helps.
If you have any concerns, please feel free to let me know.


Sincerely,
Linda Liu
