	I am looking for a way to scale down the Shapes shown in a NodeListView so I can show more Shapes at the same time in a given UI space. How would I do that? Also, can I use more than 1 column to show shapes, and/or can I change the orientation of the list from vertical to horizontal?

	Set smaller node.Bounds values: Code <diag:NodeListView Name="nodeListView" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" Height="200" Width="400" SelectionMode="Single"> <diag:ShapeNode Bounds="0,0,20,20" Shape="Actor" diag:NodeListView.Label="l1" /> <diag:ShapeNode Bounds="0,0,20,20" Shape="Ellipse" diag:NodeListView.Label="l2" /> <diag:ShapeNode Bounds="0,0,20,20" Shape="Decision" diag:NodeListView.Label="l3" /> </diag:NodeListView> NodeListView inherits from ListView and you could change its ItemsPanelTemplate to change orientation or add columns. You can find an example here: http://mindfusion.eu/Forum/YaBB.pl?num=1365173782/1#1 I hope that helps, Stoyan

	It helps partially. I use MVVM bindings to set the ItemsSource, however. Would I have to adjust the ItemTemplate then?

	The Xaml above shows actual nodes added to the node list, it does not change item templates. So you could set Bounds for the nodes in ItemsSource from code-behind as well. If you meant ItemsPanelTemplate, it only lets you customize the layout of items in the view, regardless of whether they come from ItemsSource or Xaml content. You will have to adjust it to create horizontal layout, since neither base ListView nor NodeListView expose properties for orientation or columns.

	I solved the issue by setting the style for ShapeNode: Code <diag:NodeListView.Resources> <Style TargetType="diag:ShapeNode"> <Setter Property="Bounds" Value="0,0,20,20" /> </Style> </diag:NodeListView.Resources>
