ListView Multiple Columns overlapping text

[RTollison 0]

I have a listview on a form that is sizable. i hard coded 5 columns to it but when different users with different monitors, laptops the columns overlap the text. is there a way to detect when text overlaps and then i could reduce the number of columns and refresh the listview. the text that is displayed is file names but depending on the users that info could be longer than the others.

i would rather not hard code the # of columns but i don't know when to trigger the increase/decrease the number of columns.

Never mind i just went with a specific width for columns of 150. livstview.width div 150 = number of columns.

so far everyone seems to be happy with it.

You need to detect the real DPI and then expand the widths etc. Look into MultiMon and ShellScaling units.
