TreeListView Sample

This sample shows how to create a custom view that resembles the GridView view mode that is used by ListView. The custom view presents hierarchical data in columns at each level of the TreeView.

In this sample, the TreeListView class inherits from the TreeView class and the ControlTemplate definitions for its header and items use the GridViewColumnCollection, GridViewRowPresenter, and GridViewHeaderRowPresenter classes to specify how the TreeListView appears.

This sample demonstrates a specific feature of the Windows Presentation Foundation and, consequently, does not follow application development best practices. For comprehensive coverage of Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Microsoft .NET Framework application development best practices, refer to the following as appropriate:
