As Esgici said, this is clarified in the reference.

This is a limitation inherited from Windows ListView control.

The trick to workaround this, is to create a first column with 0 width. So, the first visible column will be the second, that could be aligned as you wish.

Thanks for remember us that.

I'll must test and analyze the code yet to consider its inclusion in HMG.

I've not tested, but I'm pretty sure that this hack is working fine.

The hack consist of adding an extra-column, when column zero is not left-aligned and later deleting the original one (the column #0).

Code: Select all

   if( iColumn != s )
   {
      ListView_DeleteColumn( hc, 0 );       // <-- this hack
   }

The problem is that according Microsoft it can't be done

The following quote is from ListView_DeleteColumn macro documentation at msdn(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... S.85).aspx)

Column zero of the list-view control cannot be deleted.

Pretty strange... maybe I'm missing something...
