Hi, guys

i am having issue with ListView items.
Too large text in the item does not fit into width, please see 001.png.

it can be solved by setting TextWrap = true for SimpleListViewVisualItem inherited class

protected override void SynchronizeProperties()

{

base.SynchronizeProperties();

Cars car = (Cars)Data.Value;

this.Text = "<html> " + car.Model + "";

this.element1.Text = "<html>" +

"ABS:" + (car.ABS ? "YES" : "NO") + "" +

" ESR:" + (car.ESR ? "YES" : "NO") + "" + "";

this.TextAlignment = ContentAlignment.TopLeft;

this.ImageAlignment = ContentAlignment.TopLeft;

//this fixes issue from 001.png

this.TextWrap = true;

}

but, i will get the result shown on 002.png, where we have too big item height and second item does not seems to be shown correctly ("Q7" word is not shown).

I have figured out, if the string length does fit into ListViewItem width, it might miss last word of item text.
If I disable images for ListViewItem, then i can see last word of item text. see image 003.png

  private void listView_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)

        {

            //comment this to fix last word showing

            e.Item.Image = (Image)Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(((Cars)e.Item.Value).ImageFileName);

        }

anyway, i cannot fix first item height.

i have checked this one
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/listview/item-height-issue.aspx
but it does not help too much.

i am using Telerik WinForms version: 2013.2.724.40

the source code project is available for download here:

Thank you!

Hello Igor

Thank you for contacting Telerik Support.

In order to obtain correct sizing of the items of the custom items, it is necessary to set ItemSize according to control's size and restructure the custom item to hold the whole information in the stack as it is demonstrated in our Custom items help article. Please find attached the modified sample project.

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