Adding Images to ListView Subitems

[Mark Doggett]

Hi

I have a listview control with four columns. The problem
I have is that the second column needs to display an
image but as it is a subitem this doesn't appear to be
able to be done. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Thanks

Hi Mark,

Thanks for posting in this group.
For your question, I think there is not a suitable property for you to set
image to the listview subitem.
I think you should do the owner draw yourself.
While .Net does not expose the function for you to customize owner draw,
you have to P/invoke the Win32 way of handling owner draw.
When owner draw happens, there will be WM_NOTIFY with NM_CUSTOMDRAW sent.
You should hook this message, and the message's lParam points to the
NMLVCUSTOMDRAW structure(can be find in platform sdk document). You can
check its iSubItem field, to do cutomize owner draw to certain subitem.

Hope this helps,

Best regards,
