I am involved in a project where I have the need for a really rich treeview control. The application is written using WinForms in C#. The treeview control in .net seems to be fairly limited. It is lacking in several ways:

  • multiselection, can’t select multiple nodes at the same time
  • poor drag support for repositioning items
  • Poor label editing support
  • Poor support for control over how all the elements are drawn & custom painting(everything from the + next to the node, the little dots that make up the tree, icons and text)

I will likely end up having to write my own from scratch but before that happens I though I would check to see if any 3rd Parties have seen an opportunity here and beat me to it..

Thanks for any advice.

    Telerik has great controls for winforms and wpf. You can find information on their TreeView control here:

    DevExpress also makes great controls and I have used them in the past. You can find more information on their TreeView control here:
