Is there a way to indent columns other than the main column based on depth. This would make the data more readable with large amount of data.


Desired Appearance:

A    X X X
|
+-B   X X X
|
C    X X X


More goal is a little more complex than above because I'm displaying numbers where the Xs are above and they are right justified. I tried right padding the values with spaces, but they appear to be getting trimmed because the cell is right justified.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,

I'm not sure I fully understand the problem here. Why is you data not readable with the XXX data in a separate non-indented column?

From your desired appearance it looks like the XXX numbers are no longer in a single column. You could achieve this by simply including the XXX numbers in the text for the main column. You would do this by handling the GetCellData event and formatting a string that includes both the A/B/C text and the XXX text.

I'm not saying the data is NOT readable, I'm only implying that If I could apply a small indent to the subordinate cells it would be more readable IMO. I still want to keep the #s in their own column - just slightly offset them for aesthetics.

EX: Notice children B and C are slightly indented from its parent, but still in the same column.

-------ACCOUNT-----|------11/1/12006-----|
============================|
----------A------------|--------$3,210---------|
----------+--B--------|------------$1,900-----|
----------|---C--------|------------$1,310-----|
----------D------------|---------$4,735--------|


I'm using the treeview to display financial # and the childrens #s are contributions to the parent. seeing this with a slight indent makes it more readable IMHO. Prior to using virtualtree I used the Windows treeview control and a fixed pitch font (Courier 10) so the spacing was identical - I formatted each node to have the correct spacing so you could easily see contributions to the parent - I was however limited 1 only displaying #s for 1 day - with virtualtree I'm now showing 5-10 days of daya accross a page.

Thanks

It would be possible to do this by handling the GetCellData programmatically for these cells and inserting the required spaces based on the Row.Level in the format string eg
