Name

ListViewItem

Synopsis

This class represents an item in a ListView control. You can add and remove these objects from the ListView.Items collection.

In one of the icon views, the imagery displayed comes from the Text and ImageIndex properties (inherited from the various ListView image lists; the list currently in play can be retrieved from ImageList). You can also specify various other aspects of the items appearance such as the Font, ForeColor, and BackColor. You can also discover whether the item is Selected, Focused, or Checked. (See ListView for more information on these features.)

In the details view, the ListView displays several columns, in addition to the simple text and icon for the item. To support this, you should add additional ListViewSubItem objects to the SubItems collection.
