Change of StringValue in ItemCollection View does not react on Enter

[vdorfer]

Bug can be reproduced by:

• Add a new StringValue to the ItemCollection
• Change the Value of the StringValue
• Press Enter

--> the change is not visible in the item list in the left window (see screenshot), only after changing the focus. This bug does NOT occur again when adding another StringValue.

I can reproduce this issue with HL 3.3.8.

Seemingly the ListView stores a column width that is not update when the underlying value is changed. That's why the string is cut off after a few pixels. The column width of the list view must be updated when one of the stored items is changed.

Pressing F2 to rename has nothing to do with it.

Another possibility is to set the columns to autoresize depending on the contents and get rid of the questionable AdjustListViewColumnSizes method.

Unfortunately, there is not option for automatic resize of columns in a ListView. I thought this could be achieved by using the magic value -2 for the column width (cf. ​http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4802744/adjust-listview-columns-to-fit-with-winforms), but this, as the AdjustListViewColumnSizes, has to be triggered manually.

r9755: Added calls to AdjustListViewColumnSizes when an item changes its ToString representation.

Reviewed r9755 and tested the changes. Works nicely. Thanks for fixing this!

r9814: Integrated r9755 into stable.

r9755 reduced performance of GUI updates massively. See #2949.
