<summary>Represents a Windows list view control, which displays a collection of items that can be displayed using one of four different views.</summary>
<remarks>
<format type="text/markdown"><![CDATA[
## Remarks
A <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control allows you to display a list of items with item text and, optionally, an icon to identify the type of item. For example, the Windows Explorer list of files is similar in appearance to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control. It displays a list of the files and folders currently selected in the tree. Each file and folder displays an icon associated with it to help identify the type of file or folder. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> class represents an item within a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control. The items that are displayed in the list can be shown in one of five different views. Items can be displayed as large icons, as small icons, or as small icons in a vertical list. Items can also have subitems which contain information that is related to the parent item. The details view allows you to display the item and its subitems in a grid with column headers that identify the information being displayed in a subitem. The tile view, which has limited availability as described below, allows you to display the item and its subitems as a tile that contains a large icon next to the textual information. <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> supports single or multiple selection. The multiple selection feature lets the user select from a list of items in a way similar to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListBox> control. Additionally, the user can activate selected items to perform a task. For example, you could use a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control to display a list of files that the application can then open and utilize. The user can select the files to open and then double-click them to activate the items and open the files in the application. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> can also display check boxes, using the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckBoxes%2A> property, to allow the user to check the items that they want to perform an action on. You can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control in a variety of ways. The control can be used to display information from an application, a database, or a text file. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> can also be used to obtain information from the user, such as selecting a set of files to process.
<xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> provides a large number of properties that provide flexibility in appearance and behavior. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A> property allows you to change the way in which items are displayed. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LargeImageList%2A>, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.SmallImageList%2A>, and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.StateImageList%2A> properties allow you to specify the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ImageList> objects that contain the images displayed for items and, in the case of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.StateImageList%2A>, the check boxes that are displayed when the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckBoxes%2A> property is set to `true`. To determine which items are checked, you can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckedItems%2A> property to access the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckedListViewItemCollection> collection. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Columns%2A> property allows access to the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ColumnHeaderCollection>, which stores the column headers that are displayed when the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A> property of the control is set to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.View.Details>. Items are added and removed from the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> through the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Items%2A> property. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Items%2A> property allows you to access the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ListViewItemCollection> of the control, which provides methods for manipulating the items in the control. If you want to allow the user to edit the text of an item, you can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A> property. When your control contains a large number of items, it is often easier for the user to see them in a sorted list. You can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Sorting%2A> property to sort the items alphabetically. You can also completely customize the appearance of a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control. To do this, set the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.OwnerDraw%2A> property to `true` and handle one or more of the following events: <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.DrawItem>, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.DrawSubItem>, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.DrawColumnHeader>.
Many of the properties of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control are used when the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A> property of the control is set to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.View.Details>. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AllowColumnReorder%2A> property allows the user of your <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control to reconfigure the order of columns at run time. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.FullRowSelect%2A> property allows an item and its subitems to be selected instead of just the item. To display gridlines in the details view to identify the boundaries of items and subitems in the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView>, you can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.GridLines%2A> property. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.HeaderStyle%2A> property allows you to specify the type of column headers to display.
A <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control can operate in virtual mode, where <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> objects are generated dynamically instead of being stored in the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Items%2A> collection. This can be useful for dealing with very large lists or lists whose contents frequently change. To enable Virtual mode, set the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.VirtualMode%2A> property to `true` and handle the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.RetrieveVirtualItem>, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CacheVirtualItems>, and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.SearchForVirtualItem> events.
In addition to the many properties that are available for a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control, there are methods and events that your application can use to provide additional capabilities to the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView>. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeginUpdate%2A> and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate%2A> methods allow you to improve performance when you add many items to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> by preventing the control from repainting every time that an item is added. If your <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control is displaying items and subitems, you may want to provide functionality when the user right-clicks a subitem. To determine the item whose subitem is being clicked, you can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.GetItemAt%2A> method. When performing validation of the items after the user has edited them, you may want to display a specific item to the user to change. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EnsureVisible%2A> method can be called to ensure that the specific item is in the visible area of the control.
If the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A> property set to `true`, you can perform tasks such as validating the text being edited before and after the text changed by creating an event handler for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeforeLabelEdit> and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit> events. To perform tasks such as opening a file or displaying a dialog box to edit an item displayed in a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView>, you can create an event handler for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ItemActivate> event. If you allow the user to sort the items in a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> when they click a column header, you can create an event handler for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ColumnClick> event to perform the sorting. When the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckBoxes%2A> property is set to `true`, you can determine when a change in an item's check state has occurred by handling the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ItemCheck> event.
You can also set a background image for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> with the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.Control.BackgroundImage%2A> property. Your application must have the <xref:System.STAThreadAttribute> on its `Main` method to correctly display the background image for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control. In addition, if a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control with a background image is hosted in Internet Explorer, specify comctl32.dll version 6.0 as a dependent assembly in the application manifest file to ensure the background image is properly displayed.
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 provide three features that enhance the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control when your application calls the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.Application.EnableVisualStyles%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method: tile view, grouping, and the insertion mark.
The tile view lets you balance graphical and textual information by displaying item and subitem text next to large icons. Set the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A> property to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.View.Tile?displayProperty=nameWithType> to enable this behavior.
The grouping feature lets you visually group items into related categories. Use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Groups%2A> property to add <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewGroup> objects to the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control when you want to enable this feature. To temporarily disable the feature, set the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ShowGroups%2A> property to `false`.
The insertion mark feature lets you provide drag-and-drop item repositioning with visual feedback to indicate drop locations. Use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewInsertionMark> object retrieved through the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.InsertionMark%2A> property to display the insertion mark.
These features are available only under Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. On earlier operating systems, the code that relate to these features has no effect, the tile view appears as the large icon view, and the insertion mark and groups do not display. In some cases, you might want to include code that determines whether these features are available, and provide alternate functionality when they are unavailable. These features are provided by the same library that provides the operating system themes feature. To check for the availability of this library, call the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.FeatureSupport.IsPresent%28System.Object%29?displayProperty=nameWithType> method overload and pass in the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.OSFeature.Themes?displayProperty=nameWithType> value.
The following table shows some of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> members and the views they are valid in.

## Examples
The following code example creates a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control with three <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> objects specified and three <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem> objects specified for each item. The example also creates <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ColumnHeader> objects to display the subitems in details view. Two <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ImageList> objects are also created in the code example to provide images for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> objects. These <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ImageList> objects are added to the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LargeImageList%2A> and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.SmallImageList%2A> properties. The example uses the following properties in creating the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control:
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AllowColumnReorder%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckBoxes%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.FullRowSelect%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.GridLines%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Sorting%2A>
This example requires that you have added the code to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.Form> and call the method created in the example from the constructor or another method on the form. The example also requires that images named `MySmallImage1`, `MySmallImage2`, `MyLargeImage1`, and `MyLargeImage2` are located in the root directory of drive C.

## Remarks
The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Activation%2A> property allows you to specify how the user will activate an item in the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control. Activating an item in a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> differs from just selecting an item. When an item is activated, an action is typically performed in an event handler for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ItemActivate> event. For example, when an item is activated you might open a file or display a dialog box that allows the item to be edited. Typically, an item is double-clicked by the user to activate it. If the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Activation%2A> property is set to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ItemActivation.OneClick>, clicking the item one time activates it. Setting the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Activation%2A> property to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ItemActivation.TwoClick> differs from the standard double-click because the two clicks can have any duration between them.
> [!NOTE]
> If the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Activation%2A> property is set to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ItemActivation.OneClick> or <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ItemActivation.TwoClick>, label editing will not be allowed regardless of the value of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A> property.

<format type="text/markdown"><![CDATA[
## Remarks
The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit> event occurs when the user finishes modifying the text for an item. The new string that the user types for the item is passed to the event, and the event handler can reject the change. If the event handler rejects the change, the text reverts to the text as it was before the user began editing the item.
> [!NOTE]
> Because the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit?displayProperty=nameWithType> event takes place before the label edit is committed, calling the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Sort%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method in a handler for this event will sort the item using the original value.
In order for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit> event to be raised, the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A> property of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control must be set to `true`.
You can create an event handler for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeforeLabelEdit> event to perform tasks before the user edits the text of an item.
For more information about handling events, see [Handling and Raising Events](/dotnet/standard/events/).
## Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit> event to restrict a newly edited label to characters in the alphabet. The example uses the <xref:System.Text.ASCIIEncoding> class to obtain the ASCII character code of each character of the new label. If the character falls between the ASCII codes that represent numbers, the new label cannot be applied to the item. This example requires that you have created a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control on a form and added items to it. The example also requires that you have connected the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AfterLabelEdit> event to the event handler defined in the example code. In order to use the <xref:System.Text.ASCIIEncoding> class, your file must include the <xref:System.Text> namespace.

## Remarks
Setting the value of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AllowColumnReorder%2A> property has no effect unless the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A> property is set to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.View.Details>. You can use this property to allow users to reposition columns in the control at run time. When the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AllowColumnReorder%2A> property is set to `true`, users can position the columns in the control to display the item and its subitems in a way that meets their needs within your application.
## Examples
The following code example creates a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control with three <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> objects specified and three <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem> objects specified for each item. The example also creates <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ColumnHeader> objects to display the subitems in details view. Two <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ImageList> objects are also created in the code example to provide images for the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem> objects. These <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ImageList> objects are added to the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LargeImageList%2A> and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.SmallImageList%2A> properties. The example uses the following properties in creating the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control:
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.View%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.LabelEdit%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.AllowColumnReorder%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.CheckBoxes%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.FullRowSelect%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.GridLines%2A>
- <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Sorting%2A>
This example requires that you have added the code to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.Form> and call the method created in the example from the constructor or another method on the form. The example also requires that images named `MySmallImage1`, `MySmallImage2`, `MyLargeImage1`, and `MyLargeImage2` are located in the root directory of drive C.

<summary>Prevents the control from drawing until the <see cref="M:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate" /> method is called.</summary>
<remarks>
<format type="text/markdown"><![CDATA[
## Remarks
The preferred way to add multiple items to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> is to use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ListViewItemCollection.AddRange%2A> method of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ListViewItemCollection> (accessed through the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.Items%2A> property of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView>). This enables you to add an array of items to the list in a single operation. However, if you want to add items one at a time using the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ListViewItemCollection.Add%2A> method of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.ListViewItemCollection> class, you can use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeginUpdate%2A> method to prevent the control from repainting the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> every time that an item is added. When you have completed the task of adding items to the control, call the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate%2A> method to enable the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> to repaint. This way of adding items can prevent flickered drawing of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> when lots of items are being added to the control.
If <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeginUpdate%2A> is called more than once, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate%2A> must be called an equivalent number of times. Until the last call to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate%2A> the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> will not repaint. Other than this, multiple calls to <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeginUpdate%2A> have no effect.
## Examples
The following code example demonstrates initializing a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> control to contain check boxes. It also demonstrates how to use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.BeginUpdate%2A> and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView.EndUpdate%2A> methods. To run this example, paste the following code into a form that contains a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ListView> named `ListView1`. Call the `InitializeListView` method from the form's constructor or `Load` method.
