How can I unselect item in ListView?
this is easier.
this.myListView.SelectedIndex = -1;
this.myListView.Update();
I know this is late but in case someone else needed the solution I would like to add to the solution.
You need to set the Focused property to false to avoid deselected items having focus.
for (int i = 0; i < this.myListView.SelectedIndices.Count; i++)
{
this.myListView.Items[this.myListView.SelectedIndices[i]].Selected = false;
this.myListView.Items[this.myListView.SelectedIndices[i]].Focused = false;
}
Suppose you are accessing the ListView from a parent form/control.
You can add this piece of code in the form's/control's constructor/load event:
this.myListView.LostFocus += (s, e) => this.myListView.SelectedIndices.Clear();
Ok, so in your case, you would replace that delegate with:
if (this.myListView.SelectedIndices.Count > 0)
for (int i = 0; i < this.myListView.SelectedIndices.Count; i++)
{
this.myListView.Items[this.myListView.SelectedIndices[i]].Selected = false;
}
You can give the code a nicer form, btw.
myListView.SelectedItems.Clear();
