A List Control/Component by Richer Components

RichListView is the #1 high-performance, flexible and advanced list component for Windows .NET development.

RichListView gives you powerful control over the design and appearance of the control in easy-to-modify properties giving your application a professional look that is highly usable.


RichListView lets you add content-aware sort capability to columns using several built-in algorithms or your own custom pattern matching.The latest edition of RichListView component. RichListView is one of the most advanced listview replacement products on the market today. Highly customizable and tuned for performance, this listview is without peer in the industry.

RichListView is a fully .net based ListView control. RichListView is one of the most fully featured products available for .Net ListView development today. While most ListViews focus on heavy grid based/database applications, RichListView focuses on a lighter, higher performance and feature rich approach. RichListView is a perfect solution for your windows forms applications. Most grids and ListViews today are heavily DB oriented that tend to perform poorly when presented with large amounts of data. RichListView attempts to fill this need by providing an extremely high performance .Net control (no ActiveX or unmanaged code). Fine grained visual customization

Right out of the box, RichListView comes with the ability to set the Backcolor, TextColor and Font at the Control, Row, and SubItem levels with no extra coding necessary! RichListView gives the programmer maximum control over the presentation with minimal coding. Cell Editing


We call our cell editing technology 'Activated Embedding' which refers to the fact that you can embed any type of control that is 'activated' by a click or double click of the cell. Types of embedded editing are setup at the column level so that you could have for example a textbox edit control on the first column and a calendar control on the second column. These editing features only come up when activated so your list looks smooth and professional at all times.
Built in cell edit types are Textbox, ComboBox, and DateTimePicker. You can also select the 'UserType' and add your own activated embedded controls!
To give you maximum control over your cell editing, you can subscribe to pre edit and post edit events so that you can load presets or customizations on the fly as your control is being activated in the list.
Sorting


RichListView comes with 2 built in sorting types and the ability to customize the sorting in any way you see fit. Sorting is setup on a per column basis so you can have different types of sorting based on which column they sort on!
You have the following sort types to choose from Quicksort, InsertionSort, and MergeSort.
Each sorting type has its up and downs.
Quicksort is extremely fast but is unstable. Unstable sorting means that if you sort Column A first, then sort Column B, thing's that are the same in Column A may be re-ordered.
Insertion sort is moderately fast and stable.
RichListView doesn't just provide you with several sorting options built in, it also provides you with sorting TYPES as well. You can choose from 3 different sorting comparer types or use your own! Preset types of comparison are Text, Numeric and DateTime as shown below.


Very high performance.


Adding 50k items to the .Net ListView on a P4 2.8 takes a little over 20 seconds to perform. Adding 10k items to RichListView takes under 1 second. RichListView was built for performance. Using every trick available including a cache of references to objects, we have tuned this control for maximum performance even under heavy loads.
RichListView uses an optimization list of references to each node in order to greatly speed up access times to every part of the tree. This adds a very small amount of extra memory consumption (4 bytes per node) but in turn gives blazing fast speed when opening and closing sections of the tree that contain huge numbers of nodes.


Checkboxes


Checkboxes can be added to any cell anywhere in the ListView. Checkboxes are specified at the column level, however you can override a checkbox at the sub item level so that a checkbox does not show up.
