Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to reset the style of the subitems of a ListViewItem through the use of the ListView.TopItem property and the ResetStyle method. To run the example, paste the following code into a form containing a button named Button1, and call the InitializeListView method in the form's constructor or Load event-handling method.

internal:
   // Declare the Listview object.
   System::Windows::Forms::ListView^ myListView;

private:

   // Initialize the ListView object with subitems of a different
   // style than the default styles for the ListView.
   void InitializeListView()
   {
      // Set the Location, View and Width properties for the 
      // ListView object. 
      myListView = gcnew ListView;
      myListView->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 20, 20 );
      myListView->Width = 250;
      
      // The View property must be set to Details for the 
      // subitems to be visible.
      myListView->View = View::Details;
      
      // Each SubItem object requires a column, so add three columns.
      this->myListView->Columns->Add( "Key", 50, HorizontalAlignment::Left );
      this->myListView->Columns->Add( "A", 100, HorizontalAlignment::Left );
      this->myListView->Columns->Add( "B", 100, HorizontalAlignment::Left );
      
      // Add a ListItem object to the ListView.
      ListViewItem^ entryListItem = myListView->Items->Add( "Items" );
      
      // Set UseItemStyleForSubItems property to false to change 
      // look of subitems.
