DataRepeater Control WinForms remove dotted line

Question

I have a DataRepeater control in a WinForms application.

The question is simple: how can I get rid of the dotted line that always appears when an item is selected?

Answer 1

This happens if you set _dataRepeater.ItemHeaderVisible = false. Since item headers are not visible, the repeater shows this dotted line in order to show which is the current item of the repeater.

Turns out there is actually a simple way to achieve this:

_dataRepeater.ItemHeaderVisible = true;
_dataRepeater.ItemHeaderSize = 0;

Which will achieve the same but without the dotted line.

Answer 2

Unfortunately removing the dotted lines is "currently" not possible. (and probably never will be)

DataRepeater control is a pretty cool and useful control but it seems to have some issues and limitations.
