Better ListView Express

Better ListView Express is a complex software solution that comes to the rescue of programmers tired of the insufficient functionality of ListView in .NET WinForms; it provides them with new as well as improved features to simplify their work.

Built as an alternative to the integrated ListView component, using C#, Better ListView Express is not just a wrapper for the existing functions, as it was rewritten from scratch and thus not only improves the built-in tool, but also adds new options to it.

Among the most noteworthy features provided by Better ListView Express, as opposed to the default component, users can work with data binding capabilities, embedded controls, automatic sizing of objects, transparent background images, inbuilt sorting, serialization to XML and binary, as well as display of tooltips for items.

Moreover, the original features of the .NET WinForms component, which are significantly improved by this utility, include custom label editing possibilities, checkboxes visible in all views, detailed hit tests, support for images on the column, groups, items and subitems.

Similarly, users can find ameliorated drag and drop functions, with effects and cross-application item dragging, owner drawing with full control, searching by typing, focusable groups, and several others.

Better ListView Express’ assembly is FIPS and CLS-compliant, while also containing a digital signature and a strong name. This makes it a reliable tool for developers, ensuring they to do not need to worry about their project’s safety.

While this component does come with numerous enhancements when compared with the default ListView component, users who require additional functionality may want to look at the paid version, namely Better ListView.
