Custom drawn ListView- can't receive CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW

[lunaroverlord]

I'm custom-drawing a listview control, but while I can receive the CDDS_PREPAINT message, the CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT never comes. I've searched around and tried various things, but to no avail.

Here is the WM_NOTIFY message:

DWORD result; //global variable

...

case WM_NOTIFY:
if(((LPNMHDR)lp)->code==NM_CUSTOMDRAW && ((LPNMHDR)lp)->idFrom == 5467)
{
				
            LPNMLVCUSTOMDRAW lplvcd = (LPNMLVCUSTOMDRAW)lp;
	switch(lplvcd->nmcd.dwDrawStage)
	{
		case CDDS_PREPAINT: //this message is processed fine
			result = CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW;
			break;
		case CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT: //I never receive this one
		{
			int iRow = lplvcd->nmcd.dwItemSpec;
			if(iRow & 1)
			{
				lplvcd->clrTextBk = RGB(255, 34, 100);
				lplvcd->clrText = RGB(255, 22, 2);
				result = CDRF_NEWFONT;
			}
		             result = CDRF_DODEFAULT;
		}
		break;
		default:
	                       result = CDRF_DODEFAULT;
	}
             return result;
}

What could be the reason for this? Thanks for any help.
