Disabling of a StateImage for one Node

Post by Natorion »

Hi,

Is it possible to easily disable a the display of a StateImage of one Node or is the only way the use of a custom StateImage-List with one "blank" image?

cheers,

Using a custom state image list is one way to achieve this. Another one is to use the CustomDraw event. But a custom state image list should be faster and easier.

After I realized that a blank icon is not really what I want (it is a white space next to the expando) I tried setting the StateImageIndex to Empty:

Code: Select all

treeItem.StateImageIndex = Empty
It is exactly what I want ;)

Oh, yes, I had forgot about this possibility. You can replace Empty with 0, because this is what is happening behind the scenes. For treeviews, state images are one-based, that's why 0 doesn't result in the first state image being displayed.
I tested your code on Windows Vista and it works - with themes as well as without themes. But you should test it on Windows 2000 and XP. If I remember correctly, not all versions of comctl32.dll move the item text to the left if the state image is set to 0.

Tested it with XP without theming and works fine.

I've tested it on Windows 2000 and it works there, too. So I think I'll document it.
Maybe it was Windows 98 or NT 4.0 where it didn't work. But those systems aren't supported anymore.
