[RESOLVED] Windows form control like this?

[Pale]

Is there a windows form control that looks like this: http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll159/Pale091/Development/Ex.jpg (Snapshot from CCleaner )

If not, how can i make that with C#?

Thanks.

I'm sure the datagridview could be made to look that way.

Or a ListView using custom Column objects.

Is that a row entry or column headers?

The only difference that I see between the image and a ListView is the (seemingly useless) checkbox in the first column.

It looks like its in the column header to me. I think that's what he is looking for. I don't know of any Windows control that can do that. Asside from ineriting from ListView and doing it yourself. But that's beyond my knowledge at the current time, so I can't help with that.

P.S. It can even wire the check/uncheck event to select/deselect the children if that is what is desired.

All it really takes (sans WPF) is a subclassed Column type with a child checkbox control.

I'll take a look at WPF then, because I need to change the UI of a ListView control myself. But its always been too much work for me to worry about right now.

I thought there were WPF Hosts that you could use in a windows form and a win32 host you could use inside WPF forms.

I've never worked w/ WPF because of the xml format of the layout & the fact that their support in visual studios is pathetic, but I could have sworn I heard about something like that when it was introduced.

[Arjay]

WPF can be supported in WinForms and vice versa.

Visual Studio 2008 with SP1 has a better xaml editor. It's still not quite up to the WinForms editor, but it keeps getting better.

I find that Xaml is simple enough to be able to just create the UI by editing the xaml (although I'm still looking forward to a full featured editor).

I have added the XAML Power Toys to my VS 2008 some days ago and did a short look into it. It seems me that the editor is much more advanced then ever before using this add on. But I must confess I have nnever really used WPF in any of my projects. I'm not familar with HTTP stuff nor with XAML But I think when there is a good tool as it seems to be now, then I'll give it a try
