  Features and screenshots

  The list of the most important features of the control is presented below:

  • Very similar in appearance, behavior, and development related features with the standard ListView control;

  • Allows the developer to data bind or disable data binding of node indentation and expansion values to custom data item members by setting or clearing the appropriate MemberPath properties;

  • Allows the developer to use an external NodeManager class instance as the core node management business logic provider within the control;

  • Allows the end users to expand and close nodes, and to increment or decrement node indentation, excepting the case that these features are disabled by the developer, by setting the appropriate ReadOnly properties to true manually;

  • Uses the current culture (language and region) set by the end user (using the Regional and Language Options) for displaying and retrieving values such as numbers or dates and times, excepting the case that the running thread culture was set by the developer to a specific culture information object manually;

  • Uses the current theme provided by the operating system (Aero, Luna, etc.) or configured by the end user (when such option is available), excepting the case that the developer has customized the user interface properties values manually.
