In the near future, we will have to develop some advanced interface which I believe will be possible with list views . Basically, it will consist of multiple columns (number is determined at page load and can be refresh at demand) and multiple line. Each ‘cell’ will be defined in the future but will not be too complicated, a few text boxes but nothing dynamic in this part.
My problem is coming from the header, which will consists of two layers and the big one will therefore contain many small ones. Since it will contains a lot of date, I will also need to scroll horizontally and vertically.
I’m pretty sure all of this is possible some way or another and maybe with list views, so I was wondering if anyone ever did this. Also, while I’m exploring ListViews, I was looking for a really good extensive tutorial on those.
I posted the below while in the midst of experiencing a small aneurism in my brain. It does not precisely apply to this post as ListVIEWs are not discussed very much in the mentioned articles.
I have found this series of articles written by Dr. WPF to be extremely helpful when using ItemsControls.
‘L’ is for Lookless is of particular interest as it describes how styles, and templates can be used effectively for an easilly changable display of your items.
There is also a DataGrid control which may work better for you depending on what you want to do with it:
DataGrid vs ListView(GridView)
Here is a pretty good tutorial for the GridView.
And an SO article for nesting datagrids.
