Architecture IntegralUI TreeListView control is part of IntegralUI family of products, and as such uses common infrastructure shared among other controls. The TreeListView class is inherited from ListBase class which is a parent class for all list controls in IntegralUI class library. Because of this, you will find many similarities between other controls like ListBox, ListView and TreeListView, which all belongs to the IntegralUI Lists class library. Object model To fill the TreeListView control with data you need to use TreeListViewNodeCollection which holds a collection of nodes. Every node can contain standard objects like StateImage, CheckBox, Icon, Text arranged in single line. Furthermore if you want to present your data in multiple columns, every node contain a collection of SubItems. There is direct relation between columns and subitems. Meaning, if you reorder columns, the subitems for each node will also be reordered. Additionally, each column, node and subitem can contain custom content in their space. By default a plain text is used to present data in these objects. However, by using XML tags you can create custom layouts for each column, node or subitem. You can insert almost any custom objects like: Text, Images, Hyperlinks, Controls, CheckBox, Icons, Animated gifs etc. and arrange them in custom layouts by using Tables and paragraphs. The following pictures show you the difference between standard presentation, using just plain text and icons, and advanced presentation: using XML encoding in creation of custom objects. 5
