Listbox set multiple rows as selected

General
1

I have a multiple select desktop listbox. I can enumerate the selected rows and see if a row has the .Selected property.

However when I was to reload this listbox and show the user the listbox with multiple selected rows, I cannot because the the .Selected property is read-only.

How can I SET multiple rows of a listbox as selected? Example image attached.

Thank you!

Listbox.Selected and DesktopListbox.RowSelectedAt are not supposed to be read-only. Have you done any subclassing?

The method that you’re looking for is on the DesktopListbox itself, not the DesktopListBoxRow.

You are correct that the DesktopListBoxRow.Selected property is read only, but DesktopListbox.RowSelectedAt is read/write.

Ah, TIL DesktopListbox has an iterable.

Thanks, that did it!

Setting RowSelectedAt is the right property to do this. Cheers!
