How to set the images for treeview nodes in the WinForms TreeViewAdv?
In WinForms TreeViewAdv control can be customized with images to the Left or Right side of its TreeNodeAdv. The images can be set on the Left or Right by using the properties LeftImageList and RightImageList. It is also possible to specify different images for the individual nodes by using the LeftImageIndices and RightImageIndices properties in the TreeNodeAdv.
C#
//Assigns image list to the TreeNodeAdv.
this.treeViewAdv1.LeftImageList = this.imageList1;
this.treeViewAdv1.RightImageList = this.imageList1;
//Gets the Path of the node and AddSeparatorAtEnd property set to true.
string path = e.Node.GetPath("\\");
//Gets an Array of Directories from the current directory path.
ArrayList dirs = new ArrayList(Directory.GetDirectories(path));
//Adds the Directories as a node in the TreeViewAdv
for (int i = 0; i < dirs.Count; i++)
{
string dir = (string)dirs[i];
int lastIndex = dir.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1;
TreeNodeAdv node = new TreeNodeAdv(dir.Substring(lastIndex));
e.Node.Nodes.Add(node);
node.RightImageIndices = new int[] { 1 };
}
//Sets the Left images for the TreeNodeAdv.
foreach (TreeNodeAdv node in this.treeViewAdv1.Nodes[0].Nodes)
{
node.LeftImageIndices = new int[] { 1 };
node.RightImageIndices = new int[] { -1 };
}
//Sets the Right images for the TreeNodeAdv.
foreach (TreeNodeAdv node in this.treeViewAdv1.Nodes[0].Nodes)
{
node.RightImageIndices = new int[] { 1 };
node.LeftImageIndices = new int[] { -1 };
}VB.Net
