Hi,

In the Contacts program on the SmartPhone emulator, the Contacts program uses a listview control. How do I get a ListView to look like that one - that is - the stripes in the background that are darker on the right?

Thank you,
Joe
 
Take a look at the SmartList control in the SDF:

Some info in the control here:

Hi Alex,

I have the SmartList installed and looked at the links. I see a SmartLink demo screenshot that looks exactly like what I'm talking about but I can't get it to look like that. All I can get is even/odd lines to be different colors.

What am I missing?

Thank you,
Joe
 
The demo code includes ControlPaint class with CreateGradBackground method
that'd return the bitmap for the background.

This is what I wanted. Have you noticed that if the view is in "List" instead of "Detail" that the items have a white background? Anyway around that?

Thanks again,
Joe
 
Yes, I have. This is by design. I do not believe you can get around this
without using custom painting
