TListView

TListView is a visual component commonly found in software development frameworks, particularly those using the Object Pascal language like Delphi and Lazarus. It is designed to display lists of items, offering various visual representations.

The primary function of TListView is to present data in a structured, selectable format. It supports several view modes, allowing users to choose how the list is displayed. These modes typically include:

* report view: Items are shown with columns, each displaying a specific attribute of the item. This is useful for displaying detailed information like file names, dates, and sizes.

* icon view: Items are represented by large icons.

* small icon view: Items are represented by smaller icons.

* list view: Items are displayed as a single column of text, often with small icons.

* tile view: Items are displayed as larger tiles, containing an icon and text.

Each item in a TListView can contain text, an icon, and associated data. Developers can populate the TListView with data programmatically or through data binding. The component provides events for user interactions, such as selecting an item, clicking on an item, or activating an item (e.g., by double-clicking).

TListView is a versatile control for displaying collections of data in a user-friendly and organized manner, making it a staple for applications that need to manage and present lists of information.
