I'm building an application destined for a touchscreen system. This application uses a ListView control that I would like to support multi-select with. However, since this is a touchscreen, the user can't hold down Ctrl / Shift to multi-select items so I've given them some toggle buttons to flag this behaviour.
Has anyone successfully overridden the item selection events in a listview to behave like the "ctrl+Click" behaviour without the Ctrl key actually pressed? This has to be able to select multiple, and de-select items.
I've had less than stellar success defining my own extension to ListView to try and change this behaviour with MouseDown/Up events, and I haven't had much luck on Google either. Surely someone out there has done multi-select on a touchscreen/PDA, I'd like to have a chat if you have. ;)

The nice thing is that it has a pretty nice behaviour for multi-select and range-select modes.
If anyone has found a more elegant solution for this problem please let me know. I can post the solution I've come up with in case anyone else is curious, once I wipe up the mess if I can stomache it.
This hack required Hattori Hanzo steel.
