hi, all
I have a ListView and it contians two items. So when click item0 or item1, I
can use the ItemSelected event to know it was clicked. But if user clicks
item2 or others, because there are only two items, no ItemSelected event was
sent. I still want to know this click and I also want to know it is on a
empty item. So how to do this? I guess I need to use MouseDown, but how to
caculate the mouse position, to know this point is on the listivew empty item
area?

Thanks

Check the ListView.GetItemAt() method. This works if the listview is in
Details mode.
