Richtext in a listviewitem

[Imperceptus]

I would like to put richtext in a listview item, any thoughts? google yielded nodda

It should be possible with .NET. P

Yes, it's pretty easy if you're using WPF. If you're using WinForms, then I don't know.

Well if its possible I will figure it out eventually, thanks =)

The XAML for a very simplistic WPF version would look like:

Code Select Expand


<ListView>
<ListViewItem>
<TextBlock>
<Span Foreground="Red">Hello</Span>
<Span Foreground="Blue" FontWeight="Medium">Hi</Span>
</TextBlock>
</ListViewItem>
</ListView>


Due to WPF's rich content model, create these sort of composite controls is really easy.

Sure looks easier then some of the crap ive tried so far.  I am tinkering with using a table layout panel, it works great but i think im breaking the scroll feature lol

Table layout panel? Are you speaking about WPF or WinForms?

This wouldn't be implicitly possible without a lot of voodoo.  You might be able to set the parent window of the rich text box to the list view, but the list view itself is a window, its items are not.

Remember that Winforms is a wrapper around the Win32 API.
