Are you, by any chance, inserting them each with item 0 and doing it in icon
order. That would essentially push the rest down like a top heavy stack.

hi there

i have a CListView derived window in my app, which i have set to Icon
Mode, and i sort my items alphabetically

now it all works fine, except when i include the manifest for using the
XP commctrl6 lib, this listview displays the icons in *revrese*
alphabetical order, and, now this is the crazy bit, they are displayed
from the bottom up!!!! ie, if without the manifest they are displayed
as:

iconA iconB iconC
iconD iconE iconF
iconG

then they are displayed with the manifest as:

iconG
iconD iconE iconF
iconA iconB iconC

*and*, they are placed from the *bottom* of the view window upwards,
which means there is space at the top of the view window if the number
of icons is small!

what the heck is going on??????

i am using LVS_ALIGNTOP
