|
|
FolderView follows the "Hide File Extensions for Known File Types" setting in Windows Explorer - if it is ON, FolderView hides the extension of a file (for example, 'notes.txt' is displayed as simply 'notes').
To force FolderView to always show the extension irrespective of the OS setting, use the following code in the NodeAdd event:
[C#]
| Code: |
private void fldrView_NodeAdd(object sender, FolderViewEventArgs e)
{
// Only show extensions for non-folders belonging to the file-system
NodeAttributes attr = e.Node.GetAttributes(NodeAttributes.FileSys | NodeAttributes.Folder);
if ((attr & NodeAttributes.FileSys) != 0 && (attr & NodeAttributes.Folder) == 0)
{
e.Node.Text = e.Node.GetDisplayNameEx(DisplayNameFlags.ForParsing | DisplayNameFlags.InFolder);
}
} |
[VB.Net]
| Code: | Private Sub fldrView_NodeAdd(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As LogicNP.FolderViewControl.FolderViewEventArgs) Handles fldrView.NodeAdd
' Only show extensions for non-folders belonging to the file-system
Dim attr As NodeAttributes = e.Node.GetAttributes(NodeAttributes.FileSys Or NodeAttributes.Folder)
If ((attr And NodeAttributes.FileSys) <> 0 And (attr And NodeAttributes.Folder) = 0) Then
e.Node.Text = e.Node.GetDisplayNameEx(DisplayNameFlags.ForParsing Or DisplayNameFlags.InFolder)
End If
End Sub |
