Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Object	null	An object which is the source of images.

Remarks

The image list box is used to display a list of items an end-user can select. It can also display an image next to an item in the list. Use the ImageList property to specify the source of the images (bitmaps, icons, or meta files). To assign images to individual items, use the ImageListBoxItem.ImageIndex property.

The ImageList property accepts the following image collections:

• ImageCollection - Supports image transparency.
• SharedImageCollection - Supports image transparency. Allows you to share images between controls within multiple forms.
• SvgImageCollection - Stores vector icons that can scale without losing their quality on high resolution devices.
• ImageList.

Note

When an ImageListBoxControl is data bound, you must define the data source field whose contents represent the image indexes. Use the BaseImageListBoxControl.ImageIndexMember property for this purpose.

If your data source contains images, use the BaseImageListBoxControl.ImageMember property to assign images to items.
