TreeView Control problem

[ankushmn]

If I have a TreeView and fill it with nodes and then decide to change one of the node's font styles to bold, the end of the text in that node gets chopped off. It seems like the TreeView isn't taking the NodeFont's style into account when calculating the width of the text. Here's the code to make it happen on a node named treeNode in a TreeView named treeView: treeNode.NodeFont = new Font(treeView.Font, FontStyle.Bold);

I spotted this a few weeks ago when somebody asked how to make nodes bold... the suggestion then was to place a few spaces at the end of the text of the node, this will not be visible but will mean that there is enough space assigned to display the same text in bold. Bit of a hack, but should work! Current blacklist svmilky - Extremely rude | FeRtoll - Rude personal emails | ironstrike1 - Rude & Obnoxious behaviour

If I remember right it should work to assign a bold Font to the TreeView and initially assign all nodes a normal font. This way the tree calculates the width with the bold font and thus everything fits.

OOh good idea, I never thought of that one. 5! Current blacklist svmilky - Extremely rude | FeRtoll - Rude personal emails | ironstrike1 - Rude & Obnoxious behaviour

Thanx Robert Rohde ...:-D

The way I worked around this bug in the TreeView was to set the node's Text to an empty string (""), assign the bold font, then set the node's Text back to the real value. Josh
