Re: Listbox with images

Richard,

I tried this and it actually works as you say. The only thing I may have forgotten to say is that I'd like to display them as if it were the "Explorer details view", that is, each one under the other.

When I use the Listview, I can only "arrange" them as the "Icon view" of the Explorer, if you see what I mean...

Thanks and best regards from Paris, France

Phil,

Yes, the listview control can support larger graphics with a custom size. A good example of a listview control is your Windows Explorer application. The panel on the right is a listview control. With it comes four ways to view the contents of the folder, include a detail view (with a small icon) and a large icon view.

Create your bitmaps, large and small, and place them in separate ImageList controls. Bind these ImageList controls to your Listview control and then you will be able to display a large or small graphic for your list item, regardless of the way your customer views the data.

Hope this helps get you going.
Richard

Ken,

Well, the thing is, I'd like to display a bitmap-type graphics large enough to be "readable", that is a 300 x 80 px representation of a plot. Would this be compatible with the listview? Looks to me like the listview really accepts icons and size would then be too small...

Thanks

Phil
