Anyone know how to get a ListViewItem by grabbing the first visible item in the ListView? I know how to get the item at index 0, but not the first visible one.
This was so painful to get working:
HitTestResult hitTest = VisualTreeHelper.HitTest(SoundListView, new Point(5, 5));
System.Windows.Controls.ListViewItem item = GetListViewItemFromEvent(null, hitTest.VisualHit) as System.Windows.Controls.ListViewItem;
And the function to get the list item:
System.Windows.Controls.ListViewItem GetListViewItemFromEvent(object sender, object originalSource)
{
DependencyObject depObj = originalSource as DependencyObject;
if (depObj != null)
{
// go up the visual hierarchy until we find the list view item the click came from
// the click might have been on the grid or column headers so we need to cater for this
DependencyObject current = depObj;
while (current != null && current != SoundListView)
{
System.Windows.Controls.ListViewItem ListViewItem = current as System.Windows.Controls.ListViewItem;
if (ListViewItem != null)
{
return ListViewItem;
}
current = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(current);
}
}
return null;
}
