Columns change in Listview control depending on screen properties.

CR
I'm having a problem with the Listview control. I populated a Listview
with 4 columns. On my PC they show up just fine, the right hand edge
of the 4th column lines up with the right hand edge of the Listview
control. However when I tried to run it on another PC you could only
see 3 columns in the Listview, you have to scroll to see the 4th.

I figured out it was because I had my screen property set to large
fonts (Control Panel/Display/Settings/Advanced/Font Size). Is there a
way to fix this? Do I need to calculate the Listview column widths
during run-time somehow?

Thanks!

Chuck.

I need to display several columns of numbers in a textbox. I wish to display the columns with the decimal point position aligned vertically. I have found that the # digit placeholders do not reserve the spaces for the number if the number of digits are fewer than the number of placeholders. My simplified example: included within a loop such that it displays two columns

Greetings! I am attempting to display data in tabular form using a ListView control in detail mode. This is for a program I originally wrote in VB6. In VB6, I would add an item to the ListView, and the item would automatically have the correct number of subitems, which I could access using array syntax. That doesn't seem to be the case in VB .Net. I tried creating a two-column listview. I added an item, and then tried to set the...

what's the trick in showing/hiding columns in ListView's Details view mode? I can change a columns width to 0 and it effectively makes it disappear but then you can actually resize the column to bring it back into view. Is there any way to disable resizing for just that one column? Any other way to do this?

Hi, i would like to custom my ListView control by making a particular property editor for ListView.Columns property. Basically, i want to allow use to choose among several types of columns (with checkboxes, with progressbars, only text, with images,..) for that i thought it could be good to create a special property editor for Columns (columnheadercollection type).

I often use detail view of the ListView control to display tabular data (is there any better way?) Many real-world applications display buttons, progress bars or dropdown lists in the columns, but it seems like ListView only allows texts. I guess if I can only know the exact bounds of the columns, I could overlay other Windows controls on it making the simmilar effects. But the problem is I can't know the exact amount of change when the...

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,...
