TreeView label editing

I have a TreeView control which I progmatically (is that a word?) add a node
to the root node BeginEdit() on that node and then want the user to change
the name of it. Exactly as what happens when you right click in explorer and
you create a new folder.

My problem is that even though everything works fine, the label is not
highlighted, so the user has to click inside the editing box of the label,
select the text manually and then type over it.

If they type an incorrect value, I pop up an error box and when they click
ok, the text inside the label is suddenly all selected as I wanted
originally.

My code is as simple as:

tvGroups.LabelE dit = true;
TreeNode newnode = new TreeNode("New Group");
tvGroups.Nodes[0].Nodes.Add(newn ode);
newnode.BeginEd it();
The checking of the label contents and working on it are happening in the
AfterLabelEdit routine. How do I get the label to have it's text
automatically selected/highlighted?

Thanks
Nev

So many postings on not to use the treeview control, but nothing recently. Is it safe to swim there yet with Access 2000-Access 2003?

I created a Windows form and stuck a toolbar on it with one button. I then added a treeView, docked it to the left of the form and enabled Label Edit. Here's the toolbar button click and after label edit event code: private void toolBar1_ButtonClick(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarButtonClickEventArgs e) { if (treeView1.Nodes.Count > 0)

in windows explorer, the nodes immed under the "my computer" root node appear with a minimum of indenting ( the +/- square is directly underneath the root node ). In the .NET TreeView control the indent is shifted one more indent level to the right, wasting valuable horizontal space. How can I instruct TreeView to indent from the root node the same way as windows explorer does? thanks,

I'm having problem. I want to have a block of code run, after a user edits the label of a node, so I put the code in the event method of the afterLabelEdit event. The problem is that this code is called even before the label is finished being edited - its being called as soon as beginEdit is called. How can I have a block of code that is run only after the user finished editing?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
