Objectlistview ignoring custom group formatting

I have an ObjectListView and I'm showing groups and their corresponding item count. I need to changing the formatting so I did:

dlvList.GroupWithItemCountFormat = "{0} ({1} records)";
dlvList.GroupWithItemCountSingularFormat = "{0} (1 record)";

However, the above formatting is ignored and the default formatting keeps on being done.

Is there any other property that I need to set?

Solution

  • I solved the problem by setting the group formatting at the column level, ie:

    mycolumn.GroupWithItemCountFormat = "{0} ({1} records)";
mycolumn.GroupWithItemCountSingularFormat = "{0} (1 record)";
