Center text in a Listbox [C# 2002]

[Shaitan00]

I was wondering if there was a way to CENTER text in a ListBox - specifically I have a listbox (lbInformation) to which I add items

[lbInformation.Items.Add(sItem);] and I would like this to be displayed in the listbox as CENTERED text (not default left-justified) however I can't seem

to find any settings or properties that allows me to set the text positioning - is there a simple way to achieve this?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

I'm not by my IDE, but have you looked at the Listbox->Font property? Possibly there is an align value in there, along with color, font face, size, etc...

It's possible in TextBox. But I don't think it's possible in ListBox. Have you seen it working somewhere?

ListBox does not support this feature out of the box. In order to achieve this result you would have to owner draw your ListBox.

No I already checked all the Apperance Properties (including Font) displayed in the Properties window of the control and there is nothing regarding alignment that can be set (from what I can see).

owner draw?

Owner draw

Just as the name suggests...

By setting the DrawMode property and overriding the MeasureItem and DrawItem events you can override the default drawing that the framework provides.
