Expand 'This PC' node on view opening

After a bit more research I came up with:

for (int i = 0; i < listbox.Items.Count; i++)
{
    ShellObjectViewModel item = (listbox.Items[i] as ShellObjectViewModel);

    if (item.Name == "This PC")
    {

        item.IsExpanded = true;
        break;
    }
}

It's not very elegant but it get's the job done.

If you have a more 'compact' solution I would be most grateful to see it.

Thank you.

Hello,

This is probably a better way.  You can make a custom class that inherits our ShellObjectItemAdapter class, and override this method:

protected override ShellObjectViewModel CreateShellObjectViewModel(TreeListBox ownerControl, IShellObject shellObject) {
	var viewModel = base.CreateShellObjectViewModel(ownerControl, shellObject);

	if (shellObject.SpecialFolderKind == SpecialFolderKind.Computer)
		viewModel.IsExpanded = true;

	return viewModel;
}

Then set an instance of that class to the ShellTreeListBox.ItemAdapter property, and it should work.

Thank you.

Just what I was looking for.
