Reordering Items
Seemingly by magic, ListView
contains automatic support for drag-and-drop reordering of items. As you drag an item around, the other items even move around to get out of the way! This is pictured in Figure 10.7. Dragging starts instantly for mouse or pen, but for touch the drag must start perpendicular to the panning direction to avoid confusion with the typical panning gesture. This can work end-to-end without any of your own C# code, although ListView
does have a DragItemStarting
event in case you want to add custom behavior.
