I suppose you meant olv.Items.Clear(), because olv doesn't have this method itself.
After all, that's the way I was trying to clear olv, but after generating another one items list and after touching the scrollbar, some error occurs.
And what's wrong, I have no idea?

Seems I have a solution!

protected override void OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs e)
{
double onScreenItem = e.Y / ItemHeight;
int index = (int)Math.Round(onScreenItem, 0) + this.VScrollBar.Value;
//this.EnsureVisible(index); why it does not work?
this.SelectedIndex = index;
this.Refresh();
}

Manjunath,

I promise this is the last thing :)

Could you give me some hint on how to override OnClick event? The hing I'm fighting with is how to determine which item was actually clicked (rest should be rather easy).

@hikari

i found out the problem below points will solve your problem

1. First of all in resource file image properties make image as embedded resource

2. secondly to use image from the resource use below statement

Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(SmartDeviceTest.Properties.Resources.Read);

and for the scroll error where u get crash at the increment "n" in customlistview.cs class change drawcount variable return statement from

return this.vs.Maximum - this.vs.Value + 1;

to

return this.vs.Maximum - this.vs.Value;

hope this will fix your problem

Hello Manjunath,

Thanks for reply on your blog. Please find a CustomListView project after small amendments: http://cid-beeaa7a407c674bf.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/C%5E3%20for%20Windows%20Mobile/SmartDeviceTest.zip

1) I put the listview code into a custom class. Last time indeed it was a part of the form code, but just for simplicity (first make it work and then I will.

2) I embedded the bitmaps as a resource, but it didn’t help.

3) The scroll problem is still there.

4) Maybe you can give me some hints on how to implement click event to select listview item?

The code I’m struggling to prepare is for my own freeware application. There is no deadline, no budget, etc. I’m just trying to make is useful as standard controls are ugly and obsolete. Between all the lines I hope that SDK for WP7S will solve the issue by providing new flexible controls.

P.S.
Unfortunately it seems feedback(at)ceveni.com does not work.

@hikari

I took a look at the uploaded file here is the suggestion for quick fix

1. first of all you did not written the first part of the code as the control i clearly mentioned it the first part of the code should be a written as control but you have directly integrated it in the form.

2. secondly, you should embedd the pictures in resource file and use it.

3. if you write it has a seperate control and then call it from the class the scroll problem gets eliminated.

and between if you are new to graphics programming or designing custom controls it takes time to do all these, if you are working on deadlines assign this task to some one who has experince in custom controls hope this helps. if you further face any problem please feel free to contact me via email: feedback AT ceveni.com

Manjunath

Sorry for bothering you but I gave up.

The problems:
1. I can't get access to bitmap files (but this issue is not directly related to the listview itself, but rather my poor knowledge). You will get compilation error, but you can ignore it.
2. Listview changes selction when I arrows, but now when I click it. I assume that some event is missing.
3. There is an error when you try to scroll to the very bottom (tested on WVGA emulator).

The project: http://cid-beeaa7a407c674bf.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/C%5E3%20for%20Windows%20Mobile/SmartDeviceTest.zip

I would be grateful for some help/hints on errors 2 and 3.

Thank you for prompt reply.

OK, I'll try to analyze the code line by line (now I just copied it, removed some compilation errors and run as is).
I will write another post if help is needed.

@Hikari

Thanx for leaving comment...

the above code first part of the code write it as the control and

second part is used to update and call the list view what i gave is the generic Mail list view body, you can write your own code and modify according to your needs and improve it by adding

1. on touch events
2. On click multiple select

adding above is very simple let me know if you need any help

2010-02-28T07:43:13.732-08:00

The problem is that I'm struggling to make it work. Either I have:
- compilattion errors (solved for now)
- display error (vertical scrollbar is too narrow)
- selection problems (I cannot select any items)

Working example would help a lot :)
