Hi (this is a rephrase of my question from yesterday!),
How can I set the size of the thumbnails of a listview in thumbnail mode?
I'm owner drawing images from my own cache (i.e. they aren't stored in
LargeImageList) but the only way I can see to tell the listview how large I
want each thumb to be is by setting the ImageSize property of
LargeImageList. Unfortunately, the maximum size for an image in this case
is 256 x 256 pixels, but I want to go up as high as 1024 x 1024. I thought
tilemode might be useful, but it doesn't work in VirtualMode. Then I
thought about subclassing ImageList to override size, but this class is
sealed, so I can't. I seem to be thwarted at every turn.....
Any ideas? As an alternative, are there any 3rd party controls around that
allow arbitrary thumbnail sizes, but still provide all the nice features of
the .NET list view, like virtual mode, thumbnail view, column view etc. ?
Thanks

Just in case anyone is interested, this is apparently a hard limitation of
the Windows.Forms ListView, but not of the vanilla Win32 list view (I
assumed the former was just wrapping the latter).
So, I will be using the ActiveX/COM Common Control version instead.

Sites using thumbnail preview for world wide web file navigation and
searching.
Below are list of sites that are either researching or providing thumbnail
preview images for online web documents. Thumbnail previews are useful for
web site navigation particularly in search engines and directories such as
Google, Altavista and Yahoo. The preview images provide a portion of the
content of the electronic file to aid in navigation.

I need to calculate the thumbnail sizes PILL will produce from an image.
In most cases I can divide and round by adding .5, but PIL seems to
round differently on odd sized images.
For example, I want to reduce an 800x816 image to have a maximum size of
697. (697/816) * 800 = 683.33, so my rounding results in 683. But PIL
produces an image of 684x697.
Is there an easy rule that will always work -- like adding .67 instead
of .5?

I'm trying to display thumbnail images in a Listview that look more like the

Hi,
I'm struggling to create an app that contains a window showing thumbnails of
all. jpg files within a specified directory.
I've been a couple of examples of how to iterate through a directory and
extract thumbnails from each jpg file but nothing about what should happen
to the extracted thumbnail. Ideally I would like each thumbnail to be
displayed (with filename underneath each thumbnail) in a listview control
(large icon view).

When I fill a listview, I resize the columns to fit the data. I need

My question therefore is, how can I tell if the items I have added

Is there any way to allow item sizes of 256 x 256 pixels for a ListView in

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
