ListView "Tile" View Issue: VS2005 / .NET 2.0
I am having an issue with the "Tile" view using VS2005 / C# / .NET 2.0, July CTP running WinXP SP2.
I have a ListView whose view I can set dynamically in my Windows Forms application. Two of the views I use are "Details" and "Tiles". The default view is details, where I have some number (say, 20) items and four columns (the columns are created at design time). Everything works as expected in details view. The problem is with the Tile view.
1. The first time when switching to Tile view, only the ListViewItem "Text" item shows up--one single line to the right of each icon in Tile View. No subitems, even though they are present, show up. HOWEVER, immediately "Refreshing" the listview will populate the items as expected--the ListViewItem Text and SubItems all show up to the right of the icon. In other words, clearing the Items collection, then creating new ListViewItems and adding them back again from the datasource (a List<> of strings) via the Add() method will show the Tile view properly with SubItems. The problems seems to relate from dynamically switching to the Tile view (incorrect behavior) vs. adding items when the listview is already in Tile View mode (correct behavior).
Ideally, I'd like to have the Tile view show up correctly when dynamically switching from, say, the Details view WITHOUT having to repopulate the ListView.
Are there any bugs open related to this, or has anyone encountered any similar issues?
Thanks,
