PRB: LVM_HITTEST & ListView State Images Don't Work as Expected

ID: Q135786

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Win32 Application Programming Interface (API) included with:

      - Microsoft Windows NT version 3.51
      - Microsoft Windows 95
      - Microsoft Win32s version 1.3
  

SYMPTOMS

The flags member of the LV_HITTESTINFO structure indicates LVHT_NOWHERE, instead of LVHT_ONITEMSTATEICON when you send the LVM_HITTEST message (ListView_HitTest macro) to a ListView control with coordinates that correspond to the state image of an item, and the control is in large or small icon view.

STATUS

This behavior is by design. The ListView state images are not fully implemented in large and small icon view. Future support of state images in large and small icon view has not been decided.
