Remarks
Use the SelectedItemTemplate property to define a custom user interface (UI) for the selected item in a ListView control. The SelectedItemTemplate is usually used to differentiate the selected item from the other displayed items. SelectedItemTemplate is rendered instead of the ItemTemplate template for the selected item.
To specify the custom template declaratively, add a SelectedItemTemplate
element inside the ListView control. You can then add the contents of the template to the SelectedItemTemplate
element. To display the field values of the data source that is bound to the control, use a data-binding expression. For more information, see Data-Binding Expressions Overview.
You can also add buttons to the SelectedItemTemplate. To create buttons that perform the built-in delete or edit operations, add a button control to the template and set its CommandName property to one of the values listed in the following table.
Button type | CommandName value |
---|---|
Delete | "Delete" |
Edit | "Edit" |
