Listview, center align subitem image

[Forcecast]

Hey all,

I'm testing around with the listview control with WinAPI using C++ and the use of it is quite
straightforward but there is one thing that I can't tackle up until now.

As the title indicates, the listview contains multiple columns and rows. This means I got multiple
subitems. I already gave the subitems an image in the form of an icon. The thing which is giving
me a hard time is the alignment of these icons.

By research I know that the first column is fixed to a left alignment and the rest is free to adapt.
I used the keyword "LVCFMT_BITMAP_ON_RIGHT" when setting the format for each column and
this only effects the icons in the column header but not the subitems of that column.

So to put it simple, why does the header alignment only gets effected by this as you would expect that all of the content gets set to this property.

Btw, I'm developing on a Windows XP atm using visual studio 2008.

P.s.: I attached a sample project which I use for quick testing.

Thanks in progress

Hey, i have the same problem.

I tried to use ListView_SetItemPosition, but it's just no way working

If you have to deal with text-items it's no problem.. you can just set LCFMT_CENTER fpr the column.

But when it comes to image-items.. no way.

Do anyone have a solution for this?

AFAIK, the only way round this is to use an owner-drawn control.
