Listbox scroll

Hello.

/windows forms/
I'm marking listbox items as selected, and I'd like to scroll listbox to
a selected entry if it is off-screen. How can I do it?

Adam,

Setting ListBox.Selecte dIndex should automatically scroll the listbox
to the selected item.

Hope this helps.

Ok, but ListBox.Selecte dIndex is read only. Should I use property or
method of it? If yes, which one?

I tried something like this:
s_lv.Items[ret].Selected = true;
rozlacz.Enabled = true;
s_lv.SelectedIt ems[ret].Selected =true;

But it doesn't work :(

Damn I made mess ;)

It should be:

s_lv.Items[ret].Selected = true;
s_lv.SelectedIt ems[0].Selected =true;

And it is not a lisbox but listview and it has multiselect=fal se property.

ListBox.Selecte dIndex is read/write, so just set it to the zero based index
you want to be selected in the listbox.

s_lv.SelectedIn dex = 3;

Adam,

Try this:

this.listView1. Select();
this.listView1. Items[ret].Selected = true;
this.listView1. EnsureVisible(r et);

The ListView has to be selected before it will honor a request to
programmaticall y select an item (I don't know why...).

Hi, I'm currently working on a simple project (for study on C#) with an input (maskedtextbox) and a listbox. The input numbers are send in the listbox. When the listbox is filled with numbers it automaticly puts the scrollbar in the listbox, thats fine but it doesn't scroll down to the last number that was keyed in and isn't visible. You have to scroll down in the listbox itself to make the last number that was entered visible.
