## Description

ViewStyle is a TViewStyle property which controls the appearance and layout for the list items on the control. The default value for the property is vsList, and causes an icon and caption to be displayed for each list item. List items are arranged in columns, filled from top to bottom and then left to right.

See TViewStyle for a description of the view style values and their meanings.

Changing the value for the property causes the widgetset control to be updated when its handle has been allocated.
