Is something like any of the images below possible with Alpha Controls (or any component that AC can skin)? My objective is to have the functionality of a ListView (i.e. adding and removing items), where each item is more than just a single row of columns, but instead can be formatted similarly to the image (i.e. large icon on the left, multiple “fields” of information, arranged on more than one row, possibly multiple fonts/sizes, etc.) A FrameBar seems like overkill and a ListView has too limited layout options. Any advise would be welcome.

Hello Eric,

I can recommend the TAdvStringGrid from TMS Software. This grid is flexible and very good supported by AlphaControls.

I am available for you, if you have questions about skinning of the grid.

Yes, I was looking at various TMS controls. The one that looks closest to what I need is the TAdvSmoothListBox. Is that also supported by AlphaControls?

Hello,

for this component you must to set the colors manually. I have added a small demo, the demo is not complete, but it shows the way how to implement it. You can customize the colors for your needs.

Understood. Are there any future plans to support this component more “automatically”?

Also, are you aware of any similar component that you do support natively?

Hello Eric24

You can receive needed behaviour with TsListView, I think, if use an own drawing of items.

Also I have found and recompiled an old demo on my hdd (attached), look, maybe it helps.
