Hello,
I am in need of a File and Folder Explorer application using a 3rd party ListView. There are plenty of demos on doing this, at such places as PSC, but I need the associated icons to have transparent backgrounds. Current ListView Explorer demos use a PictureBox to host the associated files icon thus making it impossible to have the icons background transparent. I have tried swapping out the PictureBox for an Image control but I have not been able to get it to work.
These are the specs. I would like a single ComboBox listing the users drives. When a drive is selected, or app is opened at root C drive, ListView1 will show just the folders (transparent icons) and no files on the root of the drive. When a folder is double clicked in ListView1, it will proceed into the selected folders sub folders (emulating a treeview etc...). There will need to be an Up Arrow a top row of ListView1 to navigate back out of folder.
ListView2 will display ListView1 files only and no folders. Associated files icons must have tranparent backgounds as does ListView1. When ListView1 folder is double clicked, ListView2 will change and display the current ListView1 files.
ListViews will need to preview in Report style and have multiple columns to host data such as file/folder Size, Date and Type. Do not use FSO. Only use API since it works much faster. The actual ListView that must be used is called iGrid found here:
<[login to view URL]> You will nee to downoad the demo.
I am open to discussing options as well as needing the selected developer being able to discuss options.
Language VB6.
