    I am using this:

                    radListControlFiles.FitItemsToSize = false;
                    radListControlFiles.AutoSizeItems = true;

    and it works but only if added more than 1 file, after added 1 file i cannot see the Horizontal scroll bar

    Hello Dan,

    Thank you for writing.

    It is necessary to set the FitItemSize property to false and the AutoSizeItem property to true in order to display the horizontal scroll bar, when the available space is not enough to display the whole items' content, as you did. However, you need to have items in the RadListControl by which to calculate correctly the horizontal scroll bar range. That is why I would recommend you to set the FitItemsToSize and the AutoSizeItems properties after you add the desired items as the scroll bar range is calculated according to the currently available items when you set the mentioned properties.
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
        {
            this.radListControl1.Items.Add("Item" + DateTime.Now.AddDays(i).ToLongDateString());
        }
        this.radListControl1.FitItemsToSize = false;
        this.radListControl1.AutoSizeItems = true;
    }
     
    private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.radListControl1.Items.Add("Item" + DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() +
                                       DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() +
                                       DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() +
                                       DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString());
       
        this.radListControl1.FitItemsToSize = false;
        this.radListControl1.AutoSizeItems = true;
    }

    I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions, I would be glad to help.
